Witnessing History : Kamala Harris for President (First African-American Asian Woman to Run!)


Where Trump has boasted, "Grab 'em by the pussy." Here is the current response!

My Visit with Auntie April & Emily & William & Bark Renolds

Auntie Noelle took William & Emily to HEB (their local grocery), where I let them pick 2 toys, 2 candies & 1 ice cream. This selfie in the ice cream aisle was my payment. So fun!

Swimming & Boating on Lake Murray

and we got back and docked 10 seconds before the big wind & 30 seconds before this sheet of rain came racing across the lake!

Party after the 4th on Lake Murray 2024

Joe came, and the Vedders, and of course Alan & family.
THIS is my favorite part of parties at the lake: everyone helping to chop veggies and cook burgers, too many people in the kitchen, everyone laughing and enjoying each other.

Happy Fourth of July 2024

Spent more time happily watching my girls together than I did watching the fireworks! Loving life!
"You know what? I'm going to sprint across the football field." I love my Annie!
Then back to the lake house to set a few off ourselves.

Pottery : Annie's Newest Art Endeavor

 A few weeks ago Annie expressed some interest in finding an open studio for pottery, and I already knew about the transylvania arts council pottery studio, so we headed there and met the pottery studio manager!  Annie and Alia hit it off right away and Annie immediately started volunteering and making pottery all summer. I am so impressed with her new found skills without any training! For some reason, Annie was worried I would not let her do this, but my comment was that a good mamma always pays for summer activities!
