Misquamicut Beach, Rhode Island

August 2010

Yes, that is what you think it is on Beth's back!

ahh, the dog days

Uriah and I found ourselves on the Batterton's boat a few times this past summer.
If you know Jim, or Uriah you can just imagine the crazy things that can go on.

Not sure what the term for this new sport is, I am going to go with duo'sans'boarding

The water if great, but my favorite part of boating is getting to see these little cuties (Emily too!)

Our gracious and patient driver!

Of course a photo of the Mable -- everyone's favorite part of the day:

Uriah is always coming up with great ideas...

Precious little smile

the big three-oh :)

Way back in August we celebrated with Ramona the long awaited milestone that she had been talking about and looking forward to all summer. The day was full of the five F's: Food, Friends, Food, Family and more importantly Food. Forty was not included in those five F's.

New puppies are great for cuddling.

Our kitchen, I love it, all new appliances

Sitting Area, and a little guest.

Our bedroom and the new and improved "closet"

Our first guests. You may recognize them. We had them over for Sunday afternoon dinner.

picture this

the path is brightly lit by the almost full moon
the intense heat from the day has transformed into a comfortable warmth complimented by a cool breeze
in the distance you can see lightning illuminating the sky
miles and miles away
it's a mix of feelings on the back of a horse
freedom, excitement and a little bit of fear
but for now,
it's just you and the one you love
riding
surrounded by fireflies
you'll make it back inside just before the water starts dropping
and listen to the crack of thunder
all night long
it's another one of those evenings
that you'll always remember
surrounded by fireflies

listening to... no, dancing to:

THIS is the song I can't stop listening to... doesn't it make you just want to get up and dance everywhere?!?
I couldn't find a version without the bad word in it... sorry.
Also, I want to find a talented writer to make a christian version of this song...

"Good Life".... the christian life is actually the good life... I think it would work well.

enjoy:)
