Busy Babes

This has been a super summer so far.   We've enjoyed lots of farmer's market, lots of Grandma, lots of churchy things and some of this.....



My sweet Nate is a man after my own heart.  Simple.  Perfectly content with his own company...craving it at times.  But it's mighty hard to come by around here.  One afternoon he found himself with his room all to himself.  Unheard of.  His siblings were all preoccupied.  There was a nice quiet in the house.  And I found him playing army guys all by himself.  Enjoying every quiet second of it.  I took a picture and tiptoed away.

Meanwhile, there was crafting going on the girls' room.

And Bekah was coloring Eldest's hair purple in the bathroom.

This guy has been super busy in his garden.  He can hardly talk of anything else.  He also has a watering job for a friend of mine that he loves.   Next week he gets to learn to build a rabbit trap. 

This is his first cantaloupe.  Grown from seed!  He was so proud and it was super sweet!
