Apple picking!

We took a horse wagon ride, I wasn't sure I loved it...I also wouldn't smile for the camera...
look, a grumpy butterfly

look, a grumpy sunflower (I wasn't in the best mood ever when we first arrived)

oh man, a fresh picked apple....that is worth being happy about!


mmmmm

Peaks Island Maine

on the Casco Bay ferry (last Sunday) riding to Peaks Island for a lovely afternoon outing


Our lovely friends and neighbors the Libby's were our companions

Ingrid and baby Caleb. I love baby Caleb, he is so cute. Sometimes I ask for him, "a baby?"


daddy taking me for a tour of the rocks and water as requested since he had taken Bruce for the same walk

look, a shell

I had a great deal of fun throwing shells and rocks into a little pool of water. It was therapeutic

July 4th, (catching up)

I was very excited to go berry picking on the 4th....mama's friend erin from her freshman year of college...from, ahem, "a while ago"
I inhaled every berry given to me, but was not in the mood to pick. I spent most of the time in the ergo. Erin helped mama pick.
back at the house for a bbq. Daddy smoked meat all day. it was GORGEOUS weather, cool and sunny. mama says I lucked out, no steamy PA summers for me.
eating w/ Isabel. well, mostly chucking my food on the ground. I've become rather "choosy" in my eating.
