Sunday, June 30, 2024 We have had a red and a blue RAV4 in our family for about the last ten years. Every year I say we have to find someone with a white one to invite to the Fourth of July party so we can have patriotic cars. Why? Just because. This year we […]

Saturday, June 29, 2024 Our niece, Emma, got married today in her front yard, with Levi’s small niece and nephews throwing flower petals on the ground, several deer watching from nearby, and their friend officiating.

Saturday, June 22, 2024 We went to see The Garfield Movie this afternoon and we really liked it. Keith was a big Garfield fan back in the day. Garfield is a big eater, and I really wanted to eat a lot of his treats. We went to Tom and Louise’s for game night and Louise

Keith got an email from the Woodbury community theater today advertising their production. We were free tonight, so off we went. The orchestra was not good. Sometimes bad. The upside is
