Picture Post..

Some snapshots from the last few weeks. In no particular order.....

Enjoying the summer so much!

Found Karilee & Derek like this early one morning when I got up. One got scared during the night, called to a sibling and both came down to snuggle in the living room. When I asked them later why they were both on the recliner they said because the leather couch was too cold :)

Derek ready to go off the diving board. Both Karilee & Derek took a 2 wk swimming class and enjoyed it so much, and learned alot! So worth it! And will def be doing it more!!

Summer eve fishing. Something Steve & the kids enjoy. "Mom, can you help me dig worms"

So glad I remembered to snap a shot of one of the many "forts" the kids build in the living room. Its worth putting up with the mess for the fun it gives them. Love the creativity!! 

I see you Derek!! 

Sometimes its lining up all the chairs they can find and making a bed under neath! 

Miss Climber  pushes a chair to the counter to reach a favorite perch. Added bonus is having a water faucet to play with. Hopefully mom wont find her too quickly. 

Love how she props her feet while she eats:) 

First year to pick strawberries from our own garden! So rewarding and fun for all of us!! The children love having strawberry freezer jam again! 

"Help Mom!!" This is what I found when I went to investigate. lol I've often regretted not getting a front loader washer so it would be more child freindly to change laundry loads.  

Peaceful slumber ...(in mommys bed for a nap) 

A surprise foot massage from a 6 yr old. Talk about feeling love!!
Said this son one day, "Mom you always look nice, but today you look DOUBLE nice!" Awe!!

We've been enjoying the sun, sand and water alot this summer. 

Yes life truly is GOOD!
