Woo hoo - it worked!

Guess what the problem was for not being able to upload pictures. I have no idea. We were using Firefox for our browser, but I decided to try Yahoo's Internet Explorer to see if it made any difference. Now it works fine. Who else is having issues with Firefox????

Well, here's a small update on a few things that have happened since I last posted. The two vegetable gardens have been put in. I have one from for pumpkins and cutting flowers, and another for regular veggies like beans, tomatoes, peas, etc. My nephew Sam and I have been putting in the pumpkin garden the last few years and this year was no exception. He does a great job. The picture is of my sister Sara who is Sam's mom, and also Sam planting one of the hills.



Here's what Sam's brother Ben does while we're gardening. Uncle Don and Ben are 4-wheeler fans. Ben takes it very seriously.



Alyssa, my Mom, my nephew Brian, and I went to South Dakota to attend my cousin's daughter's graduation. The picture is of my Mom, Alyssa, BJ the graduate, and my cousin LaDonna.




My nephew Brian LOVES antique stores. On our way back to Manitowoc we stopped at an antique store we first went to a couple of years ago. I've started collecting antique cameras (not expensive, but fun). Here's the latest addition that I got while in LaCrosse. It's a Hawk Eye. What drew me to it was the fact that the outside case is pressed steel to look like leather. I have a Kodak Brownie that is leather, so this was something a little different. It's not in the best shape, but I can always upgrade if I get into this collecting thing.



Well, I'm SO happy I got the picture thing figured out. I'll be updating more frequently again!

This is just a picture to see if we've figured out the picture problem. Hope it works!
