Rupert Residents

So this is mostly a picture post. I took a class to help me know how to better run my camera and now I've been trying to practice.

Flowers make for fairly cooperative subjects, so here you have one of the varieties of daylilies that grow on the side of our house, they are very nice right now.


Here is the peach variety that my mom likes, peach is her favorite color. Give her a peach shirt, she will buy it.


Here we have a cheese dog named Shay. He is a funny kid and he likes tractors and four wheelers. A lot. He will be a farmer someday and love every minute of it.


Here is pretty little 'Lyza. She is pretty mellow and very cute. And she likes food. A lot. Sit her in front of a plate of food and she will not get up until it is gone. And she uses a fork very well for a girl of 18 months.


Here is Garrissimo. He is six and is very smart and can do just about anything. He is not a farmer, but is a mighty hunter. And he likes Andy Griffith. Oh, and in this picture I think he looks a lot like my dad did when he was a boy.


We had a very nice visit with these yahoos and had a jam packed day and a half in Rupert. We went swimming, had lunch in the park, watched Andy Griffith, had a water fight, painted glitter toes, saw Cousin Becky's new baby Brianne, went to Gossner's and in general, just had a very good time.

Summer seems to be going by quickly, hard to believe that one month from today the kids will be back in school. Goodbye July . . . Hello August!
