we spent a fair amount of time on the road this summer.
we visited so much family for extended periods of time.
we backpacked.
we canned 75 pounds of roma tomatoes.
we swam.
we wrote, and wrote some more.
we picked berries.
we visited friends.
we made friends.
we played farkle.
i knitted a few sweaters.
i sewed a few shirts.
we tore out our bathroom.
we built half of a new one.
we i are am forcing ourselves to be ok with unfinished projects.
we read books.
and more books.
and we went to the library on days when the heat was unbearable.
we now have a walking, talking, book reading, song singing, art making, train loving little boy.
summer happened, and now i am ready for fall.
as a matter of fact, i have a few bushels of apples on their way to me right now. fall is almost here.
I stopped writing and updating this blog after crosby's 1st birthday, mainly because i was spending so much time on the computer, and i needed a limit. i officially deleted my facebook account and it turns out that i think that was more of a problem than writing a few sentances here on ye old blog.
facebook never made me feel good like writing a blog post does.
writing is good for me.
onward and upward.
