Celebrating Father's Day and Mom's birthday - June 21

We had a wonderful day today! Celebrated both Father's Day and mom's birthday. Started off with a cookout with burgers and some zummy "birthday brownies" with Heath Bar ice cream.

Take a look....she's rolling over!

And she's "talking"....a lot.

Then we took Karington over to mom's pool for her first swimming lesson. She's a natural!!
Splashing is always fun! Very cool in the shades (and they keep the water out of her eyes!)
We all stayed in the pool till our fingers were wrinkled...I think she loved it...we sure did!!
Check out the video of her first few minutes in the water....

Maris/ Visit to see David in Colorado - June 5-9

Maris flew out to spend a long weekend with David -arrived on Friday afternoon and got right to work helping to prepare for the Saturday market in Durango. Isn't the farm pretty?
David has a few things (greens, radishes, etc) but most of the produce is still growing or just getting planted.
They built a picnic table together - from scratch.
Finally...a place to sit and enjoy a "jar" of water!
Carol has a house about 1/2 way between Durango and David's farm in Mancos. She has around 5 acres and a llama and 2 sheep - and 3 dogs (with her roommate).
