Fun in the Sun

So, we had a bit more of a mellow week this last week. We just kind of hung out and did every day stuff. We have begun to harvest the garden. I have canned 18 quarts of beans so far and have done 8 batches of raspberry freezer jam. We have also been eating all the squash, cucumbers, beets, beans, and peas that we've wanted. It has been very nice. We had a party here for my mom's birthday. I lost my camera for most of the night, but I did get some pictures of the cake.
We also went to the river (long lake) by Tum Tum. This has become one of our favorite spots. The little kids like it and the big kids really like it. It has a lot of things to look at with the mask and the water is pretty warm. The kids and James also tried some fishing, but without success. We will try again this week. We miss Shane on these outings and most of the time Tony is working and Shauna is socializing. I hate to see them grow up. Shiloh keeps in pretty close contact so it feels like she's around. Hope you are enjoying the end of your summer.
