it surely was a bright ruby tuesday...we found this bee resting on the hood of the little red car.

when the iowan family came for a visit, betty and john's house was opened for them..the belzners have always has an open house for everyone..just as they had for our adopted sister donna last october.

here teddy's wife lois sits beside sister in law grace..when lois came into the golden family, it was quite a surprise that she and grace shared the same birthday,july 26..lois looks very nice in her ruby red jacket, eh?

mom golden was in all her glory..so happy to be part of the gang..alas!..as for dad golden, it was way passed his bedtime and so he was sound asleep and probably snoring at home!...rachel and the little doggie seem to be enjoying gramma golden's company!
