Summer Is Over

Hello summer, it was nice you stopped by to heat things up and start them on fire. Now it's time you leave again, see you next July.

Here are some pics of Grace how she spent the few weeks of summer here.

Nutella: getting kids to eat crackers since the 1940's

Being nude and eating raspberries, 2 of Grace's favorite things.

Meeting the animals at the Last Chance Fair and Stampede. She would say 'hi' and 'bye' to all of them.

Playing with mama at Spring Meadow Lake, aka 'Goose Poop Pond'

Good till the last drop. Kicking it late night at the symphony under the stars.

Wondering why we stopped the engine

Just being generally goofy looking at Park Lake, looking into the world's largest fire ring.

So long summer, HELLO HUNTING SEASON!

Stay tuned for more pictures of dead animals hanging in the car hole, hopefully coming soon...

"Swimming" Pool....Grace was more interested in climbing in and out...

Grace lately :-)

Grace's first summit on Mt. Helena!

Grace telling Floyd to drink water. Or should we say "Roy". She began calling him this while we were hiking after she heard us calling for him. Hilarious!

'Drink Roy!'

Grace helping Dada with the bathroom project.

She sat in the "big girl chair" for 20 minutes and read a book while I made dinner!

Grace's first taste of Nutella. A big hit!

A visit from Mommom and Poppy

Grace and Mommom at the restaurant. This was before the big mess was made!

At the fair, looking at the animals. Grace wandered up to the cow and said "Hi!:

Learning to play the banjo

Playing in the sprinkler

Grace loves to climb into our camping chairs now. She has also discovered how to pick her nose.

Playing with makeup!

Picking raspberries in our backyard...she will do this all day if we let her!
