E & P
Sherisa, Broc, and Emmarie came to Walla Walla for a quick visit so we planned a Sabbath afternoon lunch at Bob and Kerri's. It was so fun to see how much little E is growing and wonderful to sit and visit a bit. They even came out for a late evening tour of the house! I am grateful for such wonderful friends.

Happy Birthday Grandma D!
Jo and the girls met at Dairy Express for Grandma Dorothy's 89th birthday. Yogis, supers, BLTs and ice cream....yummm!
I sure hope that I age half as well as my Grandmas have!

The Baby Jogger
Jo once again proved his amazing deal finding prowess by finding the stroller we needed on Ebay. It is an amazing stroller and tall enough for Jo. Most importantly, though, Princess P loves it!

A Rare Lazy Summer Day
Due to the hectic nature of our life right now, Jo and I rarely find an opportunity to just chill. One quiet afternoon we decided to take Pepper outside to look at the trees. This is her favorite activity right now and after laying beside her and watching with her, I can understand why. We stayed out there all afternoon enjoying the warm summer day.

Harvest
The beautiful sea of wheat surrounding our house has been harvested. It has been neat to watch it go from little shoots to golden stalks. Too bad houses don't mature quite that fast... Jo has been working like crazy to put up the fascia. Not an easy job considering the height of the roof at the back of the house. It looks amazing, of course.
