Riana recently came up the with solution to this pink shirt. She likes the softness, but it was “kind of too pink for me.” So, we painted four purple circles using a lid. Then with fabric markers, she made them into faces and writing. Almost like Sesame Street Sponsorship, this shirt is now brought to you by a diamond, the letters R (for Riana), J (for Jack), A (for Amelia), and X (because she likes to make them.) The word “hi,” and the number 4.
What a full weekend! My Uncle and Cousin are visiting from Washington DC, and my Aunt and sister also joined us for the weekend. From visiting the children’s play museum and a potato harvest to blueberrying and birthday celebrations, we packed a lot in. Ryan and my brother also had a dirty project: roofing our garage and hauling cement away. Yuck! But back to those birthdays! We celebrated my Grandpa’s 90th birthday and he was blessed with family members making the trip to join him in this observance. We ate family foods and cake, shared stories, and laughed a good bit too. On a different night, we also celebrated Riana, who will soon be 86 less than 90 this week.She sweetly asked for a blueberry crisp and SHE wanted to pick the berries. I’m pretty sure she meant that she wanted to eat berries while we picked the ones to bake, but that’s fine too.
I will return to this post in a couple weeks (when we’re back home) to add pictures. I did not manage to upload any before we left. But I’ll leave you with a couple sweet ones from a Sunday walk.
This sweet dress was given to Riana by her Tia and Tio. Sadly, she was already too big. But now it fits Amelia perfectly. She cried when we took it off at night. :)
Purple peppers, okra, lettuce, zucchini, kale, summer squash, tomatoes (sniff boo-hoo), carrots, cabbage…
Greetings! We are just returning from our trip and a kind friend has picked up our produce this week. More, just as soon as I find the rest of my brain. I have a feeling these next weeks will be going in super speed!
