Garden & Doggie Updates

Here I am w/Gidgett the foster Chihuahua. We had her for about 10 days & then a family took her for a trial week. They returned her over the weekend while Michelle was at her class reunion. However, she has a great new home lined up & will be staying with us until her new people can make it up here from Southern California to get her.
Here I am in a pot of Dahlias & Impatiens that Michelle recently planted. They are all a pretty happy pink color.

Here is the bush Michelle planted with the Great Crocus Experiment crocuses. They still haven't popped up, but the bush is growing fast!

The Nasturtiums & lavender are blooming in the front planter...

And it looks like we will have tomatoes after all! After the spring we had we weren't sure we were gonna get any tomatoes.
Also still blooming in the front planter...

And we have a few apples! Not as many as last year, but again we didn't think we'd get any after the wet, cold spring we had this year.
And look at this planter on the front porch! Michelle loves the little pink flowers and the geranium has been blooming like crazy this year. I'm gonna have to be better about prompting Michelle to do MY blogs & not just HER blog...but we have been crazy busy lately. Hope everyone else is having a great summer too!

July 3rd car show in Lakeside

From left to right:Riley's JR dragster, Doug's 66 Mustang, and Doug's friend JR's 57 Ford in the Lakeside July Celebration car show.
Here I am on Doug's car...I'm the little blue bear in front of the windshield.

Here's the plaque Doug won...pretty cool huh, his first car show & he wins a prize!


And here's Doug proudly showing off his plaque.

And of course, not to be out done, Riley won a plaque also! Gregg won the 50/50 drawing so it was a good day for the Kirby clan all the way around!
