I was giving my sister in law a hard time about blogging their family life more so I decided to practice what I preach and try to upload some pictures that have been taken recently.
I haven’t been taking near as many pictures as my GOOD camera is not functioning up to standard. It’s o.k. if I don’t go to full zoom but if I zoom in all the way it gives me an error and I have to restart it. Also, it’s very temperamental, sometimes it won’t even focus!!! It takes away a lot of the fun of photography when you can’t push your camera to it’s limits and get the best pictures possible for your skill level! Anyway, I am thankful to still be able to record family memories.
Chad has diligently been working on our mini-farm this summer. We are trying to get the fencing put in so we can fill our barn with animals! The children have been helping, some more diligently than others. I’m not sure what all they’ve done, but I do know Chad cut down a dead tree before putting up some fencing where the tree was likely to take it out when it decided to fall on its own; the children helped move it to the wood shed.
Some friends gave us some cucumbers so yesterday we worked together and pickled them. It’s a first for us so I hope we like them!

Tonight is Jared and Jubilee’s birthday party with the Plattners and tomorrow is the annual Threshers Reunion and Jubilee’s birthday; so more pictures to post soon!
P.S. This is being posted a day late because I couldn’t remember my log in for live writer, usually I don’t have to log in. Anyway, today is Jubilee’s birthday, and she’s a very happy little girl because she got just what she wanted, but I’m gonna keep you in suspense till next time… ;)
