Garden Tour with the Flower Friends

Mountain Home puts on a nice annual Garden Tour - beautiful gardens, incredible water features, and a chance to see people since I am gone most of the week!

Vicky, Tammy, Fran, and Rose...yes we are the flower children of the 60's!


We saw a couple of special butterflies today...Rose and I think they were visits from Chris, Rose's brother. Our loved ones have a way of sending us signs they are with us, and truly I believe Chris was hanging around today, just saying "I'm free as a butterfly". We even watched a caterpillar shed it's cocoon, wet with dew, and emerge a butterfly! It was very cool! Thanks for the visit Chris!

Bresnahan Family Gathering

A beautiful summer day was spent at Janie and Bob's home in Kuna. First time many had met Allee. Celebration was for Janie's retirement as a teacher, Betty's 85th birthday, and June birthdays for Susan, Michelle and Remington. Aunt Norma Hertling was there too. We got to see Jake and meet his wife Tera and baby son Sage who travel from Twin Falls. Was a great party and even better seeing everyone I hadn't seen for such a long time.

Sweetness

Baby Allee sleeping...pure sweetness.

Allee's first visit to Mountain Home!

What a special day for us! First day of summer, and Allee's first trip. Allee, along with her mom and dad, came to Mountain Home for a visit. Allee loved being in her momma's old house, all the smells, all the things we've been telling her about. I gotta a feeling as she gets older she'll be spending a few weekends here and there with us. I can't wait!

Daddy Jeff, Mommy Zan, and baby Allee

Bye Bye Allee...see you soon
