A Weeks Worth of Post, all Rolled into One

    Hello fellow readers/bloggers~ I have missed you! This summer flew in full swing.
 I have let a whole week pass without a single post.

Well, I have been doing plenty of thinking. Ya know how it goes blogging along in my mind, but not having the time to sit and write about it. Or even when I did have the time to write, I was so exhausted turning into bed early.
Here is the weeks worth of post all rolled into one. As you can see in the photo above we had a pet box turtle the kids named Speedy. He was the fasted turtle we have ever seen.
   I have also been driving my kiddos along with a few neighborhood kids to the library and such. I love being surround by them. They really are the smartest people I know. Just look at life through a child's eyes and everything is much simpler.

   
      Gardening, So much gardening going on here. Vegtable, herbs and flowers. The girls and I added two new flower beds to the homestead. This is a lot of work with the tiller in the shop. Everything was done by hand. We are proud of our new garden. In the evenings we water and then sit on the porch with our tea. Enjoy looking at all the hard work we accomplished.
Now are you starting to see where this weeks pause came from.  If so, I still have more~

      We have been painting, cleaning/ moving our play area and sitting area. Grilling out back on nice evenings, picnicking, hermit crab passing, swimming in the kiddy pool and dealing with dogs that are not our own. This leads me to adding fence around our entire property.
Here's to the full but blessed times in our life.

If you can imagine, I couldn't fit all my post in here.
More soon to come!
