Jonathan, Katie and I went canoeing on the lake in memory of my dad's birthday which is on August 4th. I love you dad!!
To bad this came out blurry. It looks like Katies sticking her tongue out at someone.
Part of the crew.
Have you ever heard of someone running over a dog with a canoe in a lake. Well, as you can see, it almost happened. This is our friends dog, Toby.
The girls, isn't it a pretty picture. That canoe looks like our old racing canoe. I miss that canoe!!!

August 2,2008 End of Summer Camping

This was the last weekend to go camping before the kids go back to school. We had 3 campsites and 15 people. Some good times!! =)
Okay, who took this picture?!

Getting ready to play on the jet ski.
Relaxing and eating some good food.
I think it's safe to say that we worn Katie out.

July 27,2008 Baby Rabbit

Jonathan wanted me to show you this spider that we found.
He had made a web on one of my plants. It actually looks pretty cool and different.

Richard and I were driving down the road (on our way to get David at work) and saw this little guy sitting on the edge of the road.
So, we quickly stopped and turned around to save him. I was afraid to pick him up. I thought he would bite me but he came up to my hand to smelled it. So, Richard stuck him into his pocket and that's where he stayed for the drive.
When we got home we looked up online to find out what to do with the cute little baby rabbit. Did you know that a momma rabbit only feeds her babies once a day. During the day she if off doing her own thing. Come night time she will come back to the nest and feed the babies. It also said that as the babies get bigger they will adventure out of the nest to look around. Well, this little guy adventured out a little to far and to close to the road. It was about 6:30pm after we read all of this and we hurried back to take this cute little baby back home. He seemed to know where he was going when we put him into the high grass.
Of course we really wanted to keep him but knew he would only survive with his mommy feeding him.
