Early Summer

It's starting to feel like summer around here!















The garden is growing. Wow! Look at the pumpkins leaves.










Time for walks (and dancing!) around the neighborhood.














Hiding out under the new bridge across the creek in the back yard.














Spinning yarn on the porch.










Playing guitar and weaving outside.












Card games in the garden (look at the squash!).












Floating sailboats (available on Etsy) down the creek.










Serenading Mommy on her birthday (poem blogged here).


















Watching a dove through the front door window. 
--Happy Summer!

Happy belated b-day, Jennifer! I always love the glimpses of your homelife. And I am jealous of your pumpkin leaves. I have tried for two years to grow our own in our sandy soil and just can't seem to get it right. Hope you post pictures of your pumpkins this fall!
Hugs,
Jen
