One day Mumzie and I saw a doe and two fawns playing in our back yard! When the doe saw me, she stood perfectly still, watching me, until her fawns went back into the woods.

Kids. Love the randomness of this picture!
Manly conversations. It looks like Mr. A. is swatting a bug on his head :)

At Grandma R.'s, Daddy had all the kids run races and do all sorts of games around Grandma's yard.
"...let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us" Hebrews 12:1b
"Are the hamburgers done?"

Eden is a very fast runner. As she ran around the house everyone cheered her on, and when she finished...
..She put her hand on her hip and got that satisfied smile you see on her face. :)
Joel, Aunt Beth, Eden
I.G. and C. spent an afternoon with us recently. They both loved our swings!
C. was screaming the whole time he was swinging!
Standing on one of our stumps
We fed the fish together. For the first time, we got to see one of our really big fish!
:)
We also waded in the water
Drinking Gatorade and drying off our feet in the sun
Hiding behind a leaf :)
Stick fighting
I.G. helped Daddy tear up some cardboard to burn
Meanwhile, C. picked up sticks
After the boys left, we went back to our housework...Mumzie cleaning windows!Until next time,
