Today, we made Green Bean Tater Tot Casserole, it was so good! When we use to go up to the lakes and visit our friends there....she would always have dinner for us!! And this is what she made for us. (And of course she also had salads, pies etc. ) We really miss them, they are both gone to live with the Lord. But every time we have this we both think of those beautiful...lovely people whom we loved so much for so long. Have you made this before??
As you know the Fourth of July is just around the corner and if you have pets you also know how scared they can get. This picture is of our dog Rover, taken back in 1959! Rover came to our house and we adopted him right away! My brother told me that a neighbor stopped one day, to let Dad know that Rover had been at his house...but thought it was fine for us to keep him. Mom said, he was an outside dog...and was not allowed in the house! Well, you can just imagine telling a couple boys that!! smile.. Of course they brought him in of a night. He was their sleeping partner.. (Mom and Dad's bedroom was down stairs and our rooms were upstairs. The front door led directly to the stairs going up to our bedrooms!) Well, Mom soon found out and wasn't happy about it...lol
Now back to the Fourth...someone must have shot at Rover, as when he'd hear the fireworks...he would run a couple miles away to some of our farm ground and hide under the tractor..until we'd find him! I thought..wow...how did he know the way down there...but my brother said he use to follow the tractors all over. Do you have any stories about pets and fireworks??
Tom and I are doing good tonight, we both had some things removed from my neck and his chin. We were a little sore last night. But so happy they are all gone! Only thing left, we have to have the stitches removed next week!
Hope all is well in your little corner of the world!
more as it happens here in the city...........
