Summer pic's

This summer Brooke had us picking every type of fruit in the area. In Eugene they have u-pick fruit farms, where we got to pick blueberry's, strawberry's, and raspberry's. We have a freezer full of freezer jam and have vowed to never buy jam from the store again. Brooke will also be picking peaches and apples soon.

When you gotta-go you gotta-go, even if you are picking blueberry's.

Liam and Avery have loved picking fruit and vegetables from our little garden in the backyard. Liam especially likes the strawberry's and peas.

Avery and Liam enjoyed running through the sprinklers.

The family got to go to the Oakway Center to listen to a local jazz band play in the court yard.

We have had a great summer hanging at the house, going to the library, running through sprinklers, playing in the club house, and going to the park. Brooke has been taking the kids to the park for the different activities, such as the local artist that came to teach the kids how to paint. Brooke takes the kids to the library where they hear stories and sing songs. They always come back with stacks of books, and of course, Thomas the Train movies.
