County Fair

Greta had to try out the nifty machinery with Daddy. :)
(Josiah preferred to take a good nap in the Ergo.)

There were so many animals to see! Greta enjoyed it so much, and Caleb and I even more watching her enjoy it. :)

I love my new curtains--this fabric makes me giddy!
Maybe sometime I'll take better pictures; these were taken on the run one day. :)

Beauties from my day

:: Small toes peeking out the bottom of a big pink nightshirt, morning-frizzy golden hair, blue eyes and a lovely smile

:: A look of recognition and a small smile from a warm and soft and squishy little guy

:: A jar full of zinnias from the garden, all colors, on our table

:: New curtains in our main room, gorgeously turquoise and so happy. With blueberries on them.

:: Tissue-paper rainbow window stars. I'm thrilled to have finally made some for our windows.

:: Steak marinade with lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, etc., with freshly chopped garden herbs ~ parsley, cilantro, basil, oregano. It smells so wonderful!

:: Clean sheets

:: Peanut butter toast

:: Sharp colored pencils

:: A sparkly clean bathroom. It makes me ridiculously happy every time.

:: Drying eucalyptus from the garden

:: A beautiful picture of a robin's nest on my wall from brother Will's collection

Watching the stump remover machine from our window--so fun!

(Did I mention that our big walnut tree was struck by lightning and fell on our house the night after Josiah was born? I'll have to post a couple of pictures of it later!)
