What have we been up to?

Well we have been up to allot. School ended for the summer for me. John got his Degree. The kids, well we home school year around. The time of year dictates what we do. When its cold, we do allot of  math, reading, in door things. With it being warm we do science outside, history at the local historic sights, envormental study.  I have to start getting this falls study put together.
 We have spent 3 or 4 days st the Zoo this summer.  The kids love going. Its small but well taken care of. 
We all had visitors in June. Lady, Popps and some of the cousins came to visit. We went to the Soo, the local diamond mine, and picked strawberries, besides mans school graduation. 
 We also had two birthday here in July.  
 The kids took the photos 
 We got so me very nice knives, some science projects to do before school starts 

A little girl got in trouble for jumping on the couch and was told to sit on the floor.  So she sat on the dump truck in the floor. Her stubbornness is going to make her a great leader. 
 On the hot nights up here and there not really hot. The A/C is to small for this house. They sleep together in the bed room with the A/C. They really do love each other. 




Our little garden is growing big. Onions and tomato's are everywhere. The squash are trying to catch up. The growing season is so short up here. Its hard to get them going. I hope our next stop has a longer growing season. 
The squash leaves are bigger than my hand 
And we have a yard toad. The kids are excited we have such wildlife in the yard 
Our yard is bug spray free in the fence, and we really haven't had any problems. Mother nature takes good care if you let her. 
We love you Friends and Family. Thank you for following our adventures.
