I started taking pictures on Sunday because Mother was practically begging me to. Actually, my dear almost-sister Kari took some of the pictures too, so I thank you, Kari, for making Mother smile.
In this picture, Mother and my cousin's husband and their son Joshua were feeding the turtle some worms. Silly Sara was scared, though, so it took her a little while to eat them.
Walter and Josh had quite a bit of fun climbing on my beanbag chair.

Saturday went by quickly and Sunday was here in a snap. We had a lot of fun on Sunday.

On Monday I had a chance to take Walter out alone while Mother cleaned up the house a bit and everyone else was gone.
I think the pictures make it obvious, but Walter loved Rosey very much. I do believe Rosey loved Walter, too.
Walter played on the swing a bit,
Slid on the slide,
And just ran around the yard.
Tuesday came much too quickly. Since I had been the one taking pictures, there weren't many of me and Walter, so I had Mother take a picture of me with Walter, and then I took one of the two of them together. After the three of us walked the dogs, we went home and got ready to drive to Oregon. Once there we visited my great-grandma. Finally, it was time to say goodbye to Margaret, Matthew and dear little Walter. They got into Margaret's father's car and drove off to her parent's house where they spent a week. They're home in California now, but we had so much fun with all of them, especially Walter, and I'm glad to have so many pictures by which I may remember the wonderful time we had.
