Our first try at braiding onions

We are so grateful to have onions this year! This was our first try at growing them and they turned out great. :D

Well... maybe not raw...

Hopefully they will stay attached and aren't falling all over the floor as I write...

After the rain....

... it is beautiful outside!

Labor Day with the Pendletons

Today we got to go to our very good friends the Pendletons for Labor Day.

It was a beautiful day here! :D

Being silly on the way to their house.

Of course, Dad wanted to look at the garden.... and the Pendletons were only too happy to let him pull weeds (he actually likes doing this! :D).

Apparently my brothers (after having three girls in the family) were deprived of "boy" toys.
They had SO much fun learning about Rescue Heroes.

Mom: Ian, can I tell you something?
Ian: You can tell me anything you want, just please don't tell me to stop playing!

Mom: We get to take these home with us!!!!

The Pendleton boys are all done with Rescue Heroes and the toys were looking for a new home....
My brothers were..... let's just say VERY EXCITED.

Talitha :D She is so sweet!

Luke and Andrea.....
More of this "camera fun" that I don't understand....
I don't necessarily like having my picture taken. :D

They have beautiful flowers!

I hope everyone had a good Labor Day!

In Christ,
Marissa

Pictures from yesterday

The joys of homeschooling... a 10 year old girl and 5 year old boy are best of friends!

That is one cooperative insect... or Andrea just has a way with grasshoppers. :D

What a good big sister. :D We love Elaina!

Dad, Seth, Ian, Elaina, Grandma and Charlie (the dog) taking a walk.

It was a beautiful day!

Happy Labor Day!

Hey Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day!
God Bless!!

Proverbs 4:18

The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
shining ever brighter till the full light of day.

I love my Siblings!

Every day God shows me more and more how precious my siblings are and how he made them perfect for me....to fit in our family. What a wonderful family I have!!

We went to my Aunt's house, in Brighton the other day....it was a lot of fun! That's why I only put on a picture of Ian and Marissa because they're the only ones I got...how bad am I!?
