glimpses of our summer


Now that school has started and life is settling down,
I can post a few highlights of our summer:
 

 We read books...

admired baby William... 

 and admired baby William some more...
 
 visited David's parents in Sandpoint...
 
 spent time with family...
 
 posed for Grandpa's cowboy paintings...
 
 picked huckleberries in the mountains...
 
 and ate huckleberries...
 
 took naps...
 
 trimmed trees with the new chainsaw
 
and sold juice for 25 cents a cup...
 
...And tried to keep up with our vegetable garden...and failed
 
...And tried to keep our house in order...and failed
 
...And tried to keep our sanity in our noisy, messy house full of kids, surrounded by zucchini and cucumbers...and nearly failed
 
...And tried to have a great summer anyway...(We succeeded in that!)
