It might just have been too long

A 4th of July tradition with our friends. Benjamin, Cedar, Annalise

The families first appearance in the Local Storm Mountain

Parade! They were quite proud of their float!

After a typical rain in front of our house...we all relax under our new covered

porch

Is it okay to play catch up? These summer nights fly by. From working, to romping in the garden, to drives to the city the zoo. To entire weeks gone visiting family, and dancing in stomped on grass and river banks. To building on to our house just to have room for 5 sets of feet to rub mud and layer off before sipping chai together! I keep trying to find ways to capture them all and wonder if it will ever slow down. And so here I am August. Filled with highs, sunburn, laughter, exhausting, late nights with tipsm late nights with my love, late nights with my Truthy! Tonight is my late night. Boys sleeping, Truthy playing, Jody away on work I can sip my wine and remind myself of the summer memories of yesterday!
