Little Apprentices


The benefits of living next-door to 5 boys...the girls now want to have a hand in all the "man work"!

Old Life...New Life

Our favorite "Adult-Friendly" activity during moving days...child burritos. "Look Ma! I can't move my hands!"
We said goodbye to the mural we painted on the girls' wall.







2 days after moving into our new home our dear friend Nathan tore down part of the kitchen wall to reveal a chimney...and promptly installed a woodstove..."To make it hard for you to ever move again!"
It's working!

I am not sure how we lived without one.
Between marshmellow roastings, and
late night conversations...happiness in Winter depends on a crackling fire.
