Pictures of Summer

Labor Day is tomorrow. I have alot I want to tell the two of you, about August. I have so much I want to remember about the summer. But for now just pictures. Images of us together in the summer of 2014.

Family Camp

And then, in conclusion for cluster posting #3... Family camp. 3 days at Mar Lu Ridge,a Lutheran summer camp / retreat center somewhere in between Harpers Fairy and Camp David. We went with other families who subsequently became our friends and spent our days exploring, singing and celebrating God's love for us. It was renewing and comforting and just plain fun. If only every day was at family camp, it would be a stress-free life.

Oh Lu.


I know we can see your underwear Nor, but Lucy stole the camera and took this among the nonsense. And it beautifully captures you. Bare feet and all.
