Sunny Days of June

Marc turned 16 this year...

Katelyn turned 10...And we won't say how old Linda turned...

The other day the boys were out playing. Ian is pretending to be "Pepper" a little boy that is a character on one of the Lego computer games he likes to play. Whenever he has his hat and backpack on we know we're supposed to call him "Pepper". If we want to talk to Ian we have to ask Pepper to go find Ian for us. Ian will then go to the back door and yell, "Ian! Mom and Dad want you!" He'll come back and tell us that Ian is on his way back to the house and will be right with us. Then he'll take off his backpack and hat and become Ian again. Jonathan decided he wanted to learn to ski...he had a hard time understanding that we can't just order snow when he wants it.

The other night we had a beautiful sunset...
Even though the saying goes, "Red sky at night, sailors delight" we had plenty of rain the next day. Thankfully, the river continues to stay within its banks.

Before I forget...Marc didn't get a goat today, but he thinks he's going to get a sweet tempered Nubian named Pumpkin Moon. (I think she'll be called Pumpkin when she arrives at the farm.)
