cottage cuteness

Just some randomness to share...


LEGO!!!! LEGO!!! David loves spending time doing the lego thang with the kids.



My little potato picking helper. He was quite happy with the haul, however, he could only barely handle lifting the strainer. "Mama. carry."




So, this is what happens when Jacob doesn't have a nap...he passes out on the beach after a swim. I take all the cuddles I get.



A hike and a little campfire. Sophia was thrilled.



Rock climbing...



We had a visitor come and stay for two nights. Bob Thompson is a dear family friend of the Gerhards. Bob's arrival brought much visiting and play. The kids did not play shy, not at all. Bob seems to have a magic with the kids, as he was able to play with them and still have an adult conversation. It was so nice to spend some time with him and to watch the kids with him.





Jacob decided that sitting with Mamma wasn't enough, he wanted Bob. So he sat with Bob and I could see his body relax. About ten minutes later Jacob feel asleep. Talk about trust.

I believe, Sophia is explaining about crayfish....can't really tell.







Smores!!! What more could a little girl ask for?



Stories with Grandpa....Arthur gets very animated.



identifying Indian pipe flowers. Maybe a botanist like her grandma.



Swinging and pure joy!
