Morning Walk

This morning I went for a walk and watched the sunrise. The boys camped out in the yard last night. Jacob, Zachary and Josiah slept in the tents but Nicholas slept on the deck under the stars.

Reward for Hard Work

Yesterday Kevin had Jacob, Nicholas, Zachary and Josiah clean the garage. For supper he treated them to McDonalds which we ate at a park by the river in Roscommon. After supper we went for a walk at the Gahagan Nature Preserve. On the way home we stopped for blizzards.

Park

Zachary, Josiah and I went to town to do our shopping this afternoon. Since no one else was going to be home for supper, we grabbed some food at McDonald’s and ate at the park.

Picnic at Hartwick Pines

The boys and I went to Hartwick Pines for a picnic today. It’s been a beautiful day.

Day Trip

I took Luke to Camp Barakel today. I got to see Kevin and Taylor for a bit. We saw a beautiful field of sunflowers on the drive. Jacob snapped a picture of them through the window of the van as we drove past. Levi is here visiting with his cousins. We stopped at the Grayling Fish Hatchery on our way home. The boys enjoyed feeding the fish.

Pretty August Day

Funland

We went with some friends to Funland on Thursday. My kids had a great time and I had lots of fun watching them.

Happy Birthday Josiah!

Josiah is 9 today.

Happy Birthday Luke!

Luke is 15 today.

Picnic and Hike

Today is Luke’s birthday and he wanted a picnic lunch followed by a hike at Marl Lake. It’s been a beautiful day. Marl Lake is one of my favorite hiking spots. We saw chipmunks, dragonflies, and frogs.
