Fun with Dogs

Chris, Annie, Tyler and Mary Kay were here!!!! Shotzie, Dickens and Gwennie provided most of the entertainment.
After the traditional Annie throwing the dogs in the lake, Shotzie tried to dry out her ears.

Annie is enjoying her handy work!  And Gwennie and Dickens are continuing their play time in the water.

Mary Kay thinks Dickens looks like a drowned rat when she is wet. And now she knows for sure that Dickens can in fact swim!

And they had fun!


Chris enjoying life!



Annie and Gwennie loving each other.

Mary is the safe one for all of the girls!


Tyler is not sure we are sane!
Chris knows we aren't.

And there was boating.




Also drinking beer with the dogs.


Chris likes my drum.

Mary enjoying the chaos.

Mark oblivious to it all

Tyler pitching in with clean up




Chris and Dickens bonding

Wonderful having the kids and Mary K visit!!!! 
And now it's on to the 4th of July!

May & A Bit of June 2013

Blue Bunting
Spring and summer have finally arrived and we have had many beautiful birds at our feeder.  I love to sit in Mark's chair in the morning with my coffee and lap top and look out the window.  Sometimes I am lucky enough to catch a picture of one of our winged friends.

Cecilia was baptized at St. Patrick's Church in Washington.  We had to wait awhile for the ceremony to begin so we had some time to chat. Grandpa Hatton thinks Cecilia is a keeper.

Pat and Becca
George is under the pew.... couldn't get a picture.
He makes me smile.

Cecilia didn't cry at all....


Dick and Betsy came to visit!


We celebrated Betsy's Birthday. She received a Kindle from Dick and I went over how to download books from the Wisconsin Digital Library.  We will probably have to have a few more lessons!




Dick admiring our breathing salad bowl.

We are looking forward to the next couple of weekends.... Chris, Annie, Tyler, Mary Kay, Dickens and Shotzie arrive Sunday for a visit.  And then the fourth of July is just around the corner.
Please come and visit... it's why we live on a lake!
