This family clearly liked to have a good time. Here Phyllis was playing in the yard of their home in an undated photograph. She is presumably wearing a dress, but all you can see is the Peter Pan collar. Her hair is sone in bangs. She looks to be about 9 years old which would mean that this photohraph would have been taken about 1908. She has found an large poster advertisment for Old Dutch Clanser which she has fashioned into a can. It look like her father surprised her with the camera.
