Catherine took our pups (the Labs) to visit their Border Collie friends and they all were determined to go for a swim!
But, leave it to this pack of friends, they played in the rain water on top of the pool cover. I just hope the pool cover survives the winter!
Kids!

Often during the evening, while sitting in my recliner crocheting and watching TV, I suddenly feel a warm chin against the side of my leg.
It's my sweet Elsa, waiting to be seen and cuddled. She is so patient, so loving.
Of course, I put down what I am doing and cuddle my sweet girl for awhile.
There is something so very special about Labrador Retrievers. Their love and loyalty is just so wonderful.
All the best,
Lois
Catherine is continuing to celebrate her birthday all week! She and Erica had dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe here in Cincinnati and this topped it off.
It's a Birthday Brownie obviously smothered in ice cream and whipped cream!. Wow!
Happy Birthday, again, Catherine!
Love you,
Mom
Wendy looked so pretty lying in the driveway last night that I had to snap a picture. No, it's not a black and white picture, but she's so white against the black top that it almost looks as if it is.
We were out for last call before bed and the other pups were still wandering around the yard when Wendy decided the cool blacktop would feel good on her tummy.
Our twelve year old is such a pretty girl. We love our Wendy.
All the best,
Lois
Kjell spent most of the day in the kitchen making onion soup from scratch.
He started by making the beef broth, then caramelizing onions, and finally baking it in the oven.
It was fantastic!
It is good to have an engineer who cooks in the house!
Thanks, Sweetie!
Love you,
Lois
Last night Erica, Catherine, Kjell and I had a birthday dinner for Catherine at J. Alexander's.
We each ordered the prime rib, but...
I've been in a food coma all night....
Happy Birthday, again, Catherine!
Love you,
Mom & Dad
Good Morning and Happy Birthday to our one and only daughter, Catherine!
Here she is doing what she does so well, preparing food! You can see she has some help, too.
Happy Birthday, Catherine! We look forward to going out to dinner tonight so you don't have to cook!
Love you,
Mom and Dad
