Shades of Green

Fresh Paint

Here you go Lenore, two rooms with fresh new paint, the top porch is all put back together and looking good. Look at that floor shine on the downstairs porch. Now I just need to put it back together with stuff.... Paid lots of money to get this new fresh look, boy do I miss Dale....

Waterfall Action

Bobby and I were taking pictures on mother's day and practicing different settings, here are my waterfall pictures.

My Mother's Dress

Debbie was over visiting with Lenore and I. She found this dress hanging in the basement and decided to put it on. I was my mother's dress, worn in the 30's and hand made by her mother (Grandma Bayley). I think we should send it to the historical society in California....

Baby Shower

Matthew and Theresa are having a baby girl in August...I didn't quite get the quilt done for them.

Bobby and Claire during the shower...

Amish Country

Amish children in the sandbox....

Morning coffee at the Westby House....

Taylors Falls

Lenore remembered going to Taylors Falls as a child, so she wanted to see it again...

Old Man face in the rock.

We took a 45 minute boat ride down the river.

They say they saw a cross in this rock formation and therefore named the river after the cross, St. Croix, which means cross, I just don't see it....do you???

Claire Josie Mae

Claire in the family bassinet, with the blanket her great-grandmother made for her Daddy. Notice it is blue and pink so it was good for a boy or a girl, back then we didn't know what we where having.

Julia Bayley Jean

Julia in the family bassinet...bought by her great-great grandmother when she came to this country in 1924. The blanket was made by her great grandmother.
