JUST CHECKED OUT THE SISTERS BLOG, SO I DECIDED I WOULD POST SOME OF MY PICTURES TOO

EVERYONE IS GATHERED TO WATCH THE START OF THE HORSESHOE TOURN. UNDERNEATH THE SHADE TREE. IT WAS A COOKER OUT THERE.HERE IS THE TOURN. BARB SHOWED YA THE NEW PITS. I PAINTED THE FLAG ONE AND KAYLA DID THE SHAMROCK. NOTICE THE WIRE SPOOLS, NEW ADDITION THIS YEAR. A TABLE TO SET YOUR COCKTAIL ON WHILE YOU PLAYED. THE UMBRELLA WAS ADDED TO SHADE YOUR COCKTAIL.HERE'S HARLIE KAY AND HER COUSIN GRACE LOONEY(BRIAN'S DAUGHTER).THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH, CAME DOWN TO CHRIS LOONEY(mark's son) AND HIS FRIEND BRIAN HARTLEY, WHO HAS ATTENDED EVERY YEAR WITH HIM. THE ONLY OUTSIDER IN THE TOURN AND "OUT OF THE CLOSET AND PROUD" DOUG BERG & BRIAN LOONEY, AS YOU CAN SEE THEY WERE THE CHAMPS. BRIAN & DOUG HAVE WON THE TOURN 3 TIMES NOW, NOT ALL IN A ROW. BUT THEY ARE THE ONLY REPEATERS TO WIN.

SISTER SHOWED YA THE FRONT SIDE OF THE NEW KOOZIE, WELL HERE IS THE BACK. HEATHER AND I DESIGNED THESE AS THE SAME COLORS OF THE IRISH FLAG, GREEN WHITE AND ORANGE. WE WANTED THEM TO BE BRIGHT. AND OF COURSE SINCE EVERYONE HAS THE SAME KOOZIE HARD TO FIND YOURS, SO YOU HAVE TO WRITE YOUR NAME ON YOURS, SO THIS ONE IS MINE"THE BABY".

IT WAS ANOTHER GREAT PICNIC. ALL THE FIRST GENERATION OF LOONEY COUSINS WERE THERE BUT 3, SO WE HAD A GREAT TURN OUT. AND DOUGLAS DID A GREAT JOB OF FIREWORKS AGAIN. WE HAD SEVERAL FRANKVILLIANS STOP THIS MORNING AND SAID THEY REALLY LIKE THEM.

WELL I GUESS THAT IS ALL FOR NOW. TIME TO HIT THE COUCH AND READ MY BOOK AND REST UP. STARTING SOMETHING NEW AT SCHOOL THIS WEEK AND HAVE 6 BALL GAMES. SO HAVE A GOOD WEEK.

THERE IS SUPPOSE TO BE A "PUTTING UP THE WINDMILL PARTY" COMING SOON, SO I WILL HAVE TO BE THERE WITH THE CAMERA. AND THAT PILE OF DEAD BRANCHES YOU SEE LAYING THE IS THE WILLOW TREE THAT WAS IN BALK'S YARD. WHEN THE MACHINE WAS HERE TO TAKE DOWN THE SPILDE HOUSE, LAVONNE BRANDT HAD THEM TAKE THE WILLOW TREE DOWN. SHE IS WAITING FOR GRANDKIDS TO COME AND CLEAN IT UP NOW. FROM HERE I WOULD JUST FINISH MY COMMUTE TO POSTVILLE, JUST LIKE FROM THE WEST. SO WE WILL MOVE ON TO THE "OTHER SIDE OF TOWN.
