I think everyone hits a point of no return with a blog, and I almost hit ours, then I realized that this is the best way for me to let all of those folks that we love and care for what we're up to.  And since the guilt of not keeping in touch has been haunting me lately, I've decided to put some energy back into this forgotten piece of my life.  I'm not big on writing on line, it's just not a comfortable venue for me, but I promise lots of photos.  Enjoy!

  On Saturday we went to visit Brian, Sally and kids, and in a very S and B way we all ended up impromptu style at a Harvest festival.  Unfortunately, both Lily and Celeste got sick (with the flu?) that night and are still recovering, but the day was perfect.  By the way, Ella was there too (see her in the distance?) I mostly missed her when ever I managed to pull out the camera which was sporatic at best 

Russell showed Clara how to use the sewing machine and she loves it.  So tonight when she really should have been in bed, she was busy making things.  Russell and a friend have decided to have a "sewing camp" this summer for the girls and some of their friends.  I absolutely love it!
