16 Memories of July



1.  We visited Santa Claus House on July 1st
176 days until Christmas!


2.   The fireweed is in full bloom.
Once it quits blooming, there's only 6 weeks before snow.....so they say.


3.  Peonies  
These beautiful peonies were a surprise gift from a friend.
A new favorite of mine. 



4.  July 4th
A quiet day at home with the Martinson's
(We missed Geoff, Nicole and Maddy)

A few games of H.O.R.S.E.
Jami, Dave, Kaiden and Andrew


Kaiden found an injured bird.
He named him Marvin...and then Marvin flew away.




5.  A Visit from Friends  
Dave and I, Ted and Joan Riggs enjoyed a visit with 
Doyle and Lawana Hughes (Cleveland, TN) and 
Rachel Underwood (Wasilla, AK).
It had been 12 years since we last saw the Hughes. 
We enjoyed food and lots of talking and laughter. 
It was so good "catching up."
