Been REALLY Busy or TOO Tired to Blog

Haven't blogged in forever. Things have been kind of crazy around here. I guess just normal stuff, but by the time you add a garden, animals, and general babysitting it just gets crazy. Hope you enjoy the pictures. I will try and be better. Between Wayne's church calling, my 2 church callings, and us being in the Lion's Club we are totally busy. I can't believe summer is over, fall is here and winter is coming. It's not the winter I dread, it's just the lots of water that is kind of scary. I am worn out and I think I need a vacation. Enjoy the pics

Penny and Addie stylin in her new clothes from Aunt Debbie


Addie still afraid to walk on her own
She's got it all down pat now. She just runs


Wayne and one of his goats


The goats love to jump up on his back


The chickens just hanging out


The 2 turkeys just getting fat and being lazy.
I think they think they are chickens.
The big white one keeps squeezing into the hole
for the chicken pen and then can't get back out
and we have to open the door so he can get out. Funny critters.

Wayne in the garden. It it much bigger now,
and we have got lots of stuff from it. We were surprised
that is actually really grew.

Maggie and some puppies just hanging out.


A cool waterfall about an hour from our house


Addie climbing on the rocks


Addie in curlers looking in the mirror


Kael and Conol were throwing rocks at a wasp nest
and one went after Kael and bit him on the eye.
He looked like this for a couple of days.

Wayne on his shift at the May Town coffee stop
8pm to 2am. He just wanted to sleep.


Addie got into our nicely counted piles of about $1,000
(Maytown Coffee Stop money)
and fruffed it all over the bed.
She was having a ball throwing it up in the air
when I came back into the room. She thought it was great fun.


Conol and Kael started school on Tuesday. Thank goodness

Wayne put together a plastic shelf and the kids decided it was a
good place to play, so I decided to take a picture.


Ginger is running for the Hood Canal School Board.
I'll be glad when that is over also.


In case you haven't looked at Tiffani's blog.
They finalized the adoptions on the 6 kids in June.
They were sealed on July 3.
They also have a new baby that should be adopted
before the end of the year. She is a full sibling to Amelia, Zach and Caden.
What a group. They are real troupers

Michelle relaxing on a wooden bench that me and her fell in love with. It was actually rather comfortable to sit in.


The kids by a totem pole. There are lots of them up here. We have lots of indian tribes around us.
