August so far

We gathered from our garden: green beans, snap peas, and some of the potatoes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our Baby Blessing learned to crawl

 

 

We went to the fair

 

I do not know these performers but I took this picture because this lady is wearing the Alaska state summer shoe wear choice of many. The Xtra tuff, only in Alaska and yes I own a pair!

 

This turkey was just walking around in the small animal barn. Not that that pig is small or anything.

Watching some sort of equestrian event.

 

We picked lowbush cranberries and a very few blueberries

 

Returning home.

 

We went to Creamer's Field for a nature walk with friends, the Candanian Geese and Sandhill Cranes were feeding furiously!! Look out lower 48 friends, they are coming!!!!!

 

I took this picture of these three handsome men outside of church last Sunday. The suit that Baby Blessing is wearing was Blessing #1's suit.  I love, love, love the face that Baby is making!

 

 

Some mornings when we wake up there are birds feasting all over our yard. A snowshoe hair (we named him Peter) has been visiting the garden in the evenings, but he doesn't like his picture taken.

 

The older blessings are enjoying the baby and yesterday while I was making all this

 

 

they did this with the baby, obviously he doesn't mind, they even gave him some treasure.

We are enjoying the last few days of no school...today is the warmest and sunniest day we have had in a while. We took a walk before baby's afternoon nap and we visited the local beaver lodge, they have been busy, next time we will take the camera. And, I should have bought an all terrain stroller!

May the Lord find us faithful.
