In the spirit of watermelon I wanted to post an old video clip that I love.

We grew some melon this year

Summer

We raised butterflies and let them go.





Ethan's drawing of kites and balloons.

Ethan is going to be...

a big brother in March! Between starting a new job (which is great) and being tired and sick (I wasn't sick with Ethan!), I've hardly noticed the summer fly by. We have made it to farmer's markets, the lake a couple of times, and a couple of climbing trips though. Ethan says he wants a baby sister. We'll see.

Beautiful Wild Iris

Visit from Grandpa Brad and Grandma Betty

Miner's lettuce...I don't find that too often.

Day at Tony Grove, etc.

Ethan and Gracie

We found dragonflies that had just emerged from their pupal skin



Sweet friends
