The Dog trainer

Damian is so proud of himself for asking the dogs to "sit, down and stay". He can't believe his power! (just notice his darling smile of triumph, not his hands....)

my dress

These pictures of Emma are so fun. She is wearing the dress her great-great grandma made for me!

Hiking with the boys

Dad and I have had so much fun hiking with these enthusiastic boys! They are truly lovers of nature. It is so much fun hearing their comments and observations about nature. (And their tall tales about getting the "bad guys" and wild animals lurking behind every rock and bush!)

Next day, she discovered "Papa's" cap and definately liked what she saw in the mirror. I mean,....who wouldn't?!

Emma

Emma discovered "Papa's" hat and his guitar. Cracked me up. She was a little apprehensive to be on the horse alone.

Little Isaiah

What fun I am having with Angela and the kids here! These little babies are so heavenly!

Mount Vernon

Camille and I had such a good time at Mount Vernon. VERY interesting and thought provoking. Loved it!
