I admire those fancy suspenders.

And the little dapper little dachshund.

I think that family is perfect too, but of course, I'm hardly objective!

I'm feeling pretty good these days, thank goodness.

The dachshund barks a lot!

How 'bout them Hor doovers,
Ain't they neat,
Little piece of cheese,
And a little piece of meat."

The whole family is way cool! Of course, I'm likely biased.

You made me smile too.

Just wanted to say hello and thank you for replying. I just read some horrible thing Trump is doing and your message gave me a warm feeling of hope in our humanity and I smiled again.

Maybe it's in our genes? Everyone is healthy and smart. All Democrats too.

Your generosity and goodness passed on to these fine folks, then to be passed on to others.

It warms my heart to see everyone - old and young - being together for the day and enjoying each other’s company.

Little Doxie was probably just overly excited to meet a whole bunch of new people. 🙂

The food looks fabulous, too! TY for sharing your family with us!

I suspect you're right about the pup, but omigod, that bark was LOUD! We sent him outside so we could talk in peace.

The food was great as was the company! Such a good time.
