This painting was painted by my grandmother, Eva (Eve) Anderson. It originally went to my sister, but is now in my possession. It was late at night, and I didn't want to use my flash, so the colors are not quite right. I am currently working on a project to put all of my grandma's painting in to a book, but it is slow going. I hoping to get a good part done by the end of September.

My yard is full of mushrooms. I'm sure that it's from all of the moisture this year.

217:365 Rain, Rain, Rain

We received almost 2" of rain in just a short amount of time. It almost looks like a snowstorm. Ooops, I just bit my tongue. =D

We had to snap a photo of the four of them before everyone went their separate ways today. It was fun to have everyone together.

215:365 Detroit Lakes

Brandy and Tyler started their vacation today. They asked us if we wanted to meet them in Detroit Lakes for the first day. Of course, we agreed. Julie and her two little ones, joined us along with Lora. Julie says that her two kids are kind of like my pseudo grandkids and I don't mind that a bit. Lilly is just as cute as can be and I ALWAYS enjoy spending time with them. Lefty and Lavonne and the three boys also spent the afternoon with us. We had a room right on the beach, so that was nice. It was a really pleasant afternoon. We managed to snag a photo of the whole gang, thanks to a tripod and a remote release shutter button. It's always so nice to spend time with family.

214:365 Digging

We made it to Fargo this afternoon and have three of the four cousins together. The fourth one will be joining us tomorrow. We walked over to the park near Derek's house for a while this afternoon. The kids always enjoy the park no matter where we are.

I met this little munchkin in Minot today and she is going to be spending a couple of days here with us, before we head to Fargo to see her uncle and cousins. She is very excited to be here, but I think she is more excited to get to Fargo. You know how some people can't seem to think without sticking their tongue out? I think that she may end up being one of those people. The tongue just helps her move and think. =D
