  • Woke this morning to the low hum of a freighter delivering this winter's salt supply! I love the sounds and sights of freighters but summer seemed so short I struggle with the idea of winter around the corner.

    Don has been sick with a bad cold (not the flu) and finally is feeling better so we went to Da Camp just for the day.

    Matt and his buddy Cale came down to hunt and had dinner with us.

    Last time we were down there we added rocks to the entry, I picked the big ones along the road then pick a handful of blackberries . . . YUMMY! Rocks, berries, rock, berries!

    We found this wheel thing in the woods and brought it back for a fire ring. I love it, it really helps keep the wind off the fire. ( We find some really good stuff tossed in the woods, that's how we got the outhouse, too).

    Coming around Keweenaw Bay the clouds seemed to be every shade of blue, we could see rain coming off of Lake Superior and a rainbow cloud! I shot the picture through the windshield and I am glad I did because by the time we could stop it was gone.

    Again, I am so blessed to be living in such a beautiful place.

  • I have successfully completed a full week of school!! Currently I am working in a kindergarten classroom with Jayney, a good friend and the owner of all the New Foundlands (10 more puppies arrived the week before school started). We have worked together before and have our rhythm and get right to work. My sensory room that I was suppose to start at the beginning of the school year is on hold as the room is full of all the new technology going in to the district. When I discovered this I had hope to start the room this coming week but that won't happen. The nice thing is few people know about this room so there is no pressure to hurry and get it done. Once the room is cleared out I can put it together slowly and correctly. In the mean time the kinders are so cute and I have to be "up" and "on" for the full day. We have 21 children in the AM and once they are gone we have 20 minutes to be ready for 24 more. Monday I was so exhausted I feel asleep at 7:30. My wonderful husband looked at me and said, " I will do the dishes and get things ready for tomorrow and you go take a hot bath and go to bed." What a wonderful husband! I was renewed on Tuesday and only started to slow down Friday on the way home from work, once again Don called and said he was bringing supper home.

    Yesterday we went to Gabrielle's soccer game. I love watching the littlest ones play it is so much fun.

    Rob is the coach and found an easy way to get the kids where they need to be: simple pick them up and deposit them.

    "okay I'll let you get this one!"

    DSCN2847

    "I got it!"

    "Daddy are you sure you know what your are doing?"

    "Hmmmm, what do I want to do?"

    When she played goalie she really had the moves! Some were soccer moves, some were ballet!

    Sometimes a kid just has to sit down and pick the grass!

    Or suck your thumb or check the hair style.

    After the game we need to split up, Nikki and I headed to Jayney's daughter-in-laws baby shower and Don went with the Bishops to Tech's football game and then to Hunter's soccer game. We met back here late afternoon and relaxed for the rest of the evening. We soaked up the night out on the porch.

  • Fairy Godmother

    I had a wonderful time playing "Fairy" Godmother to Gabrielle yesterday. I picked her up from preschool where she was patiently waiting for me. We sipped Jasmine tea at our tea party and then played restaurant and store until Uncle Don came home. The guest's choice for supper was cheese pizza and Vernors with fudge pops for dessert! After supper we headed to Hunter's soccer game. We are so blessed to have such a sweetie in our lives.
