The Rainbow Garden

-
While we don't have a yard, the boys have to play outside!  So, below our balcony there is a little area that has no grass but plenty of rocks and dirt.  We went to the nursery and the boys picked up some of their favorite flowers to plant in the area that they play.  Sam has named it the Rainbow Garden and waters it everyday when he goes down to play!

Finally got caught up on all your recent posts, Elizabeth. Beautiful apartment, beautiful view, beautiful pictures of your new home and most important a beautiful family (and rainbow garden, of course). Thinking about all of you and love you all.

Finally got caught up, too. The apartment looks great. The boys look like they're adjusting well. So jealous of your trip to "maybe it's the place, maybe it's not"--what an awesome place to see and to feel His presence. Thinking of you and praying for you all...

I sure could use Sam's help in my garden. Funny thing, I have some of the same flowers in my garden this year.

Today was the first day of cross country season for the Junior High team.  The thing about XC is that the work is put in during the summer months with early morning runs, afternoon runs, track workouts, and hill repeats.  All that work starts to become evident during these days when the races start. Jacob woke up feeling excited to get the season started.  Abigail work up at 5:48am to fix her hair and get ready for the bus.  Abram was pretty nervous as he woke up. 5th grade girls The kids ran their hearts out and did so well for the first meet. Jacob placed 2nd for his team and 3rd overall to help the boys varsity team clutch 1st place for Varsity Boys team.  Abigail looked strong and had an overall 4th place finish for the JV girls and placed 2nd for her team. Abram looked blocked it at the beginning but certainly made up for it with a strong ending to finish 1st place in the JV boys race. Let's go Tigers!

On Saturday, Nathan, Heather and Caleb came for a visit.  We had an absolutely beautiful day, and we wanted to spend the day outside.  Some people had recommended Maymont Park.  Maymont is a park that is hundreds of acres with a stone castle and barn, some animals, and lots of space for the boys to run around. Andrew wanted to get his boots wet and Aunt Heather supervised.  I am glad we crated more boots! The walk with beautiful and we enjoyed visiting along the way. There was lots of rock climbing... and lots of goats! Jacob and Caleb did a great job riding around in the strollers, but needed some time to stretch too! I love this picture of Nathan and Caleb.  He is such a great daddy and I love to see him with Caleb. Sam enjoyed a cigar at the park too.  (I joke!) The little babies ate some grass. Andrew found the cows and wanted to pet them. Sam, Andrew, Nathan and Hap found a great rock to jump off of.  Sam was fearless and surprised u...
