In The Summer Time When The Weather Is Hot!

Hi all, it has been a long time since I have posted.  We have just been trying to enjoy every moment of our summer.  We have done a few things but not a lot.  I am a firm believer in laying back and enjoying the few hot months that we have.  And boy has it been hot.  Today we reached over 100.  I told you hot.  So that means we have just had to visit this place a few times. Yummy

My youngest daughter of course has gone to spend some time with Grandpa on the farm.  She is my little farm girl.  I just love that.  She can occupy herself for days on the farm.  Here are some pictures her and her sister took.

 We have played with the neighborhood animals a lot.  They are so sweet. 

Sweet Tiger



Sweet Smokey

A few other great little creatures have passed our path. 

Fourth of July we made 4th of July S'mores.  I love S'mores.  I eat way to many of these in the summer.


And in the afternoon when it is way to hot to go outside we have been getting the house ready and organized for the busy school year.  I just love clean dressers, closets and drawers.  I get excited about little things. 

Hope you all are enjoying your summer.  Don't forget to just sit on the porch with your family and by yourself at times.  The good Lord might want to whisper in your ear a bit.  So step into the quite. 

Summer Blessings

Wonderful Last Weekend of Summer

We had a wonderful Labor Day weekend.  Alyssa and Ryan came home from college and we all took a trip down to Grandpas.  He lives on a 280 acre farm about 2 hours from us.  We had such a wonderful time with all of the family and had such great food to eat.  Those Mennonites can sure cook.  Here are a few pictures of our time at Grandpas. 

We love Grandpas cattle

The Girls love giving the cattle treats

Look how big this poor cow is that Alyssa is feeding. 

Out 40 acres.  Grandpa would love for us to put a house here but we are just not seeing it happen right now.

Picnic table near our 40 acres.  Pretty huh.

Alyssa afraid of the ticks.  She cracks me up.

Ryan and Court with their cousin.  She is adorable.

    

This is my wonderful father in law

More pictures later.  Hope you had a wonderful last summer fling also.
