Sunflower Hat

                                                               A new hat for mousy!
                                             It sort of looks like a sunflower from this angle
                                                          and that is how it got its name.

Thripple

 Happy Father's Day ,everyone!
This post's named thripple
because these are also pictures
with three of something and
that is triple.Three +triple =
thripple. I had a lot of  fun
making the title so it should be
funny, right? Or,in Dad's case,
punny. (pun+funny=punny)
Anyway, this is thripple.

From Daddy on Fathers Day:
Fun  with the crew picking gallons of fresh blueberries
 our crew and friends picking loaded bushes
Some were picked, some were eaten!
Well we may have good taste, but we may just taste good!

Tree frog

A pair of tree frogs and several other creatures crawled up the glass sliding door during the latest thunderstorm...  What  a color!

Swimming at the neighbor's pool

The neighbors have been so gracious to let us use their pool.  The kids are quite comfortable around the water and  it both cools and provides excellent exercise...

Reading in the conservatory with friends...

We are blessed to have a lovely area to read and inherited a wall of books...


 When we redid the house, we saved the bookshelves and cupboards and then put in 2x12s across the ceiling...  The couches and rug came from friends and provide a comfortable place to relax, read and enjoy the place.
 We enjoy spending time with friends...
