On My Run and Happy Friday

I went for a beautiful run today. See the clouds? Moisture in the air. It makes running more fun! And do you see how fall is arriving? The trees are turning and leaves are beginning to blanket the trails.

I hope you have a happy weekend. Thank you for visiting me here!

Happy Long Weekend

Hello there. It's Friday again already, another week flown by. I do hope you have a happy and restful weekend.

Looking through my photos from Jackson, I found this, which I snapped during the drive home through desolate southern Wyoming. A beautiful trip through pretty barren country. It is another good memory of our full summer, now over. I am now beginning to accept fall, just as it should be. Thank you for visiting me here. I look forward to posting and visiting you more in the next few months!

On My Run

My nephew has been here for most of August to run, logging some beautiful, hilly miles in preparation for his fall cross-country season at school. We've been running with behind him, pointing him in the right direction. It's really been great fun. I've tried to snap a few photos between gasps for breath:

I do love running on the trails here. We'll try to keep it up, even after family leaves next week. Trying not to think about that - we'll miss them. Happy weekend to all of you.

We're Home from a Beautiful Wedding

Hello! We're back from a big week in Kennebunkport, Maine where we were guests at my sister's wedding. She married a wonderful guy. We loved spending time with the two of them, his family, our family, and the whole crowd of friends. We had a ball! We're still reminiscing about how happy and beautiful it all was...

I wanted to share some photos family, friends and I took...

and we squeezed in some great beach time too!

I hope you're having a beautiful week! Thank you so much for visiting.

On My Run

Happy new week to you. I took a photo of some aspens I passed while running the other day...

It's so hot and dry here, but so pretty. Despite the lack of moisture, it's a good summer so far! I hope the same for you.

Camping

I love camping. These first pics are not mine, but I've been staring at them longingly since we arrived home and packed away our gear...

And that's how our trip felt to me. Those photos capture it. Plus a few of mine...

It's apparent that I love the idea of sitting by the fire with warm things to drink and eat. Eddie and Doug whittled and I watched. We had s'mores of course and played by the river. They rode bikes. It was simple and great.
I came home from our this little trip in the best mood, wanting to go right out again. We will do it again in less than two weeks and I am planning already. Can't wait.

The Past Few Weeks

I mentioned earlier that May was full, and I thought I'd post a few photos from our happy month...

We're starting our summer with a bang. I hope it continues to be this fun! Pics are: a view by the river, the arrival of my little sister's wedding invitation (!), the VW show in Denver, guest bedroom at my twin's home, beaded bug at DIA, Mt. Bierstadt from Guanella Pass, the Twister (we rode it!) and soft serve wearing mom's sunglasses at Elitch Gardens.
I hope you love the rest of your weekend.

June

Hello! May was very busy, in a good way. June came quickly and we're trying to catch up. The garden is a little unkempt, but I like it...

I hope all of you are well - I haven't been able to visit much. We're off to enjoy the outdoors. I will be back soon!

Beautiful Weekend

Happy week and weekend!

It's been busy so I'm thrilled to be home relaxing tonight, playing a bit with Instagram. What will you do this weekend? We'll go to a VW auto show in Denver. Should be fun. Have a beautiful one, and thank you so much for visiting!

Happy Spring Weekend

I hope you have a beautiful one!

Thank you so much for visiting me here this week and for your comments. I appreciate every one of them!

Homework with Milk

Eddie does not like homework. But yesterday there were only a few complaints. Perhaps the milk helped.

Did any of you like homework? How did you make it more palatable? Or how do you for your children? Any ideas welcome!
