Oh we are in trouble!

Rhys likes to "walk", Jack just started crawling. All freedom is lost for mom. These boys go every which way. Gates are up, Doors are closed, Mom is on alert. Now I just need to find a way to keep Rhys out of the dog bowl. Wish me luck.

Bath time fun

The boys love their baths. It is a highlight of our day.

Garden Trial

I wanted to make spaghetti and I asked Ryan to pick some tomatoes out of our garden out back, this is what he came back with. This was enough for a few nights. And it got us talking about next years garden. We could do one 5x bigger and I could can sauces for us to use later. There is an amount of pride when you can say dinner was made from what you grew on your own property. I thought I would share our bounty with you all. I wish we lived closer, I would make dinner for you.

Rhys in your face


I took this photo the other night at bathtime and it just cracks me up. Hope you enjoy.

Father's Day - Bitter Sweet

"Bitter Sweet"

Father's Day was only days after Kim's Mastectomy. It was decided that it would be a casual and low-key gathering, And that it was. We all enjoyed cold salads and watched golf. Brachs turned on her healing powers and laid on the couch with Aunty Kim. When I asked Ryan to discribe father's day for him this year he said "it was bitter sweet". It was hard to accept and see the fight ahead for his sister, yet sweet to spend such a nice relaxing day with the family.


Brach's giving her love and healing powers to Kim.
