Our river of life. The bends and turns * the rough rapids * the slow gentle flow * the undercurrent * the wild and the tame * it's all here, come and listen. Friday, July 3, 2015. Nothing like beating the heat at the river. These pictures are from a trip down there with some good friends. Ira happened to be at a sleep over and I was missing him something fierce! But enough of that back to our beautiful river spot! Cooling off and having some fun. :). Hot dogs agree, river is best! This man loves to fish!

Our river of life. The bends and turns * the rough rapids * the slow gentle flow * the undercurrent * the wild and the tame * it's all here, come and listen. Saturday, September 20, 2014. Silly, silly kids. This all started with Leiella dressing up her friend (not pictured) in her clothes, a dress, and putting on his clothes. They thought it was hilarious! So of course the boys needed to get in on the fun. And that of course led to a dance party. Logically. ;). There were a lot of giggles involved. So he...

Lots of random happenings! Summer is in full swing! My flower bed at the community garden. :) It's coming along nicely. We also help with the veggies and last week we were able to bring home quite a bit of lettuce and some beautiful rainbow chard. So awesome. Gleaned from the yard. :). Figuring out what flows in the new space.

I like taking pictures of the calm before the chaos. :). These kids were super excited for Easter morning. Leiella said thank you a million times. :). They got up way before me but they were good little kids and didn't touch their baskets until I awoke. They are really just the sweetest! My beautiful butterfly. :). Children a...

Fourth of July fun! Then Leiella and I stopped at a craft store, on our way to the grocery store, and bought Teresa a couple new outfits. :) When we got home Leiella wrapped them up and waited for the perfect time to surprise Teresa with her birthday gift. It was cute. All dressed up in a new dress! Happy 4th birthday Teresa!

And now he is eight! Someone had a birthday! We spent a wonderfully relaxed day together. No school on birthdays of course. ;). Indeed thrived, in it's aftermath. He was very thrilled by the bird book his bio brother and family sent him. He has been sleeping with it since then. He was very excited about this puzzle. Made y...

Ira helped me make some sauerkraut! He went through the whole process with me this time. He will be making it on his own in no time! We are starting to go into the food prep/preserving time of year! First harvests, herbs dried, foods fermented, berried frozen. Soon I'll be getting the canner out! Messages of love in the sand.

Dinner at our house. :). I found a great local place to buy grass fed humanly raised beef. Love supporting a small time local farmer and it's a better price than grass fed beef from the store, can't beat that! Add in your seasonings of choice. And mash it by hand! My kid's favorite part, ha ha! Warming up some spaghetti squa...

We took the kids to a local lake and brought the kayak along. It's not a two person kayak but there is room to put one kids at a time in front of me since they are still little-ish. Mini-kayaking lesson. :) Go Ira go! Banden leaned forward like this the whole time, so funny. Feeling the wind in his face. ;). My first born s...
