...is to let it rain."
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I guess that quote is true...for what else can we do? We can't stop it, can we? Today is grocery day...but with that constant stream of water falling from the sky...we'll wait! It may be a great day to stay indoors. There is always plenty to keep us busy. If the rain slows, later, we'll head out to the market. I have already, though, been out in the rain...tending to the wood stove. It's quite wet and muddy out there! ;)
I have pictures to show of our comings and goings of the past few days.
Madelyn and Jaxson playing Brain Quest...
Xavier, waiting for daddy to get home, one day...
Jaxson, silly guy that he is, was moving all over the place seeing if he could avoid my camera (I caught him though!!)...
Outside, this Monday evening, it was beautiful...
When Chris got home form work, we spent time splitting and stacking wood...
Christopher....oh how I love watching him work....
I ran the lever for the splitter. It's hard to tell (as I was trying to take an action photo while running the lever at the same time) but this is a log splitting in half (the piece to the right is falling to the ground)...
Homemade bread, pasta, and our homemade sauce for supper one evening...
Yesterday the big Squeeze, in all her baby-cuteness, came to town!
Jaxson and the Squeezle...
Eloise loves when I tap my nails on something...she tries to do it too! ;)
Reading with her mama...
I love how she plays with her belly...
The Squeezle loves Madelyn...
Our aunt came to our dad's garage (where we all usually meet when Devon comes to town) and brought a couple gifts for Eloise...
Chris's birthday is coming up soon. Devon wanted to do something funny for him (as he has such a great sense of humor) and she made this...*edible* kitty litter! Chris laughed and thought it was pretty clever!
Watching a movie and drawing *comics*...
Stuffed chicken breasts (in cream of mushroom soup), mashed potatoes and corn (canned from the garden) was on the menu for supper last night!
I am always up early in the morning (4:45am today) and Jaxson came down around 7 and took a bit of a snooze on the chair for a few minutes...
After tending to the wood stove, getting laundry started, and time spent on the phone with my sister...I need to get moving. The morning is passing by much-too-quickly and we have schoolwork and housework to do! Happy Wednesday...thank you for visiting! :o)
Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied,
Katy
