We always have Sunday Dinner together. My oldest Grandson is in Boise with his work. He is gluten intolerant so we are careful when he is here....not today.....fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, biscuits, baked beans and watermelon. Took a few more pictures.....

I know not everyone agrees, but I like 4 falls, especially on the little ones. They look so cute.

I did not notice any weeds in your garden. Weeds are the ultimate survivors. They actually grew under the snow this spring and when it thawed they were greener than ever. Your irises numb the brain to anything that is not beautiful so if there is a weed in your photos it is invisible.
