New Zealand visitors


Many many years ago when I first moved to this lovely place, I lived with Helena's family for a month until I could get my own apartment. Now here she is with her own family ... and a lovely one at that. Baby number two is expected around Grady's first birthday, so we'll be waiting anxiously for that news.

some freedom for Grady


The old retro walker made it out of the closet again! He of course likes to make his way to the cookbook cupboard and the plants!

kittens



The kids had fun with the new kittens ... who didn't have such fun with them!

harvest 2008









The kids enjoyed their one weekend of harvest. They had a ride on the combine, in the truck and had supper in the field ... thankfully no one lost an eye falling in the stubble!

keithan's music


Keithan is very enthused about his music class. He is excited to play his dinosaur song for everyone ... and show them what he's been learning in class. The only thing is ... the dinosaur song is one note .. D .. and is rather ... well, boring! Now he knows 3 notes, so maybe they soon be learning "songs"! I do hope he's this excited about music for another 10 years!
