2015 Garden

What a terrific year for gardens!  I had the biggest and most produce from it in all of my years gardening.  Besides the awesome produce from these pictures, we also had about 25 red potatoes.  Alot of this is in my freezer.  Now if only the other 3 in my family ate vegetables!!!  

So willing to help.  So unwilling to eat... 

 I had about 5 more squash that were picked on a different day.  

Misc. Summer Pictures

The day before school started I decided to take the kids for a fun outing so we went to the MN Landscape Arboretum.  They had an exhibit with 13 different Lego displays.  

Ashley loves doing puzzles.  She can pretty easily do 100 piece puzzles by herself.  

My mom ended up with some baby kittens at her farm again this summer.

My step-sister Julie left for Kenya, Africa in August for a two year Missionary position with the LCMS.  

Family Vacation - Days 6 - 7

Laura got up!

Kristen got up!  (and of course she poses perfectly for the picture)

Bennett had a great time fishing and this was one of the really nice fish he caught.  

He lost both of his top teeth within a few days while we were there.  (He's still to this day missing those teeth!)

The morning that we were leaving a few of my siblings took our boat out one last time.
