Summer is Ending

This summer has flown by.  We moved to a different house.  Selah turned 2.  Mama turned ??  We welcomed new life.  We said good-bye to a loved one.  We played.  We explored.  School will start in a couple days.  I am just so blessed by my family!

Summer Fun and Randomness

My Kitchen Helper

Exploring

Day at the Lake

Camping

July 4th

I couldn't find Eli and Selah.  I could hear their voices but couldn't see them because the grass was so tall.  I snuck up behind them and Eli was telling Selah, "Look at the pretty flowers."

I called their names and they turned to look at the same time.  Absolutely perfect picture!

Guinea Pigs

We had a pair of Guinea Pigs for a couple weeks until they started biting the family...THEN THEY HAD TO GO!
