Here is a portrait of Jessica taken by Papa's pond next door.


Bethany and Rebecca looking rather angelic.

Sweet little Isaac hiding out in the strawberry bucket.

New appliance in the family!

We have a new dryer!

This lovely machine dries in HALF the time of our old clunker!
It is a perfect match to our washer that was purchased by us earlier this year.

Best of all, this machine didn't cost us one cent! It was a love gift!!

The gift also included a three year extended warranty on not only the dryer, but also on our previously purchased washer!!

Now, I'm not wanting to spill the beans on who the generous givers are, but....

We appreciate your loving generosity! You know who you are!!

We love you two!!!

These three love swimming lessons!

Samuel has a great attitude and is doing great refreshing his swimming skills learned last summer.

Rebecca is loving diving in and swimming like a fish now that she can use her own goggles.

Bethany loves to swim. She always did like diving around in the bathtub when just a tiny girl.

The reluctant swimming student...

"Mom!"

Attitude improvement begins...

Squirting the teacher brings first smile...

Now, he's finally having fun!!!
