lake and river...


Enjoying a few minutes next to the Mister on a Sunday afternoon since we don't get to sit next to him or really see him at church anymore. He was exhausted and fell asleep. 


They were putting on a pioneer play for us. 


When neither of the kids will own up to something one of them have done I always refer to my third child named "I didn't do it Not me". So they decided to make this third child real. 


I have hated the way this wall was done since we have moved in. It had textured wall paper that was painted over and with a really bad spot painting job on it. I woke up feeling like tackling a project and this was it. Since then I havent done anything with it because I keep changing my mind. However we have supplies and paint. 


An evening walk in our "neighborhood"


She loves her chickens. They were pecking at the strings hanging from her cut off pants. She was cracking up. 




I made a little gallery wall in Oaks room. I loved how it turned out. 


We found one of our chickens limping. We couldn't find anything wrong with it and it eventually healed thank goodness. 


We spent a great day at the Lake of the Woods with a friend. 



This sweet lady doesn't live in our town but Lake of the Woods is half way between her town and ours. She was good friends with my Mister's little sister (who passed away 12 years ago) and we have become friends. Every summer she gets a big group of her friends together at the lake and always invites me. I have to say she has a great group of friends too. 


I found my cabbage patch from when I was a little girl. I love that I had a red head doll as a kid and now have two red heads. Oak is loving and adoring her now. 


He came and got in bed with me one morning and then fell back to sleep. His sleeping has been wacko lately. 


Being goofy as we were getting ready for our day. 


We met some homeschool friends at the park for free lunch and playing. 


It been hot so I have been making some frozen ice fruit treats for the girls when our fruit and berries go bad. They love it if you couldn't tell. 


I finally found an air popper that I like. Most of them are so corny now that I was excited to find just a plain air popper. 


I found her in bed like this. 


Every summer we head to a river and let daddy fish while we play in the river. We literally went into the middle of nowhere and it was beautiful but the bugs were SO annoying and I was afraid a bear of cougar would eat us the whole time. 





The kids had a blast.


And then the other part of our tradition is to stop at the one and only gas station in the middle of nowhere and get ice cream bars. I love making memories like this with my family.
