The strolling mini-mariachis. I drove by this big home being built to see the progress. They are now installing the brick, the brick is 12 Rusty and Devil dog
My cheerful new doormat - made in the style of the old ones with cut-up tires, only this is with cut-up flip-flops. In Memory of my mother I will post some of her pictures. She loved flowers, to travle and had a tremendous love of life. She touched many lives and warms our hearts even now with memories. Rusty walking around the edge of the pool. One day I watched him and he just kept walking around and around. I stopped counting when he passed 10 times around. Today he was looking for a place to jump in.

This is Rusty my sons dog. He loves the pool. Cannot keep him out. When someone dives under he barks and barks. If they don't come up right away he will dive under to get them. He jumps in swims around and climbs out, shakes off and jumps in again. Love this dog. Pete let me see your cat do that. Brendan , Emmet and Mimi My kids (Lucy, Spencer, Stimpy)...not shown, Wilbur the wonder cat.
Laurie Selpien a very nice lady has a web site on the Smith, Voves, Jones etc. family tree. It seems we are related as she has family from the Smith and Jones side. Even the Davis family. My grandparents came from Wayne county in southern Illinois. She put this on her web site, it is a photo taken in Oct. 1907. I do not know anyone in this picture, but some may in fact be in my family. The children are all farmers kids. Some walked miles to get to school in hot or cold weather. I don't see any shoes on any of the boys. Our kids today have school buses with AC. Me about 1945
