It has been a busy last few weeks. Allan worked on Saturday so he could have a mini holiday today. We enjoyed playing at the beach!

Monarch Release
It has not been a good years for Monarchs, so we decided to create something special with the ones we could release.
Sharing Flowers
Fireworks 2024
Last night we joined a huge crowd of people for fireworks. The last few years we have hung around the house or have gone to relatives’ homes for the evening. I heard that there was a lot of fireworks by both my parents, but was fun going to a firework show again.
Reading by Flashlight Memory
Bed time meant to be in bed. When Daddy was on business trips one night they could stay up as long as they wanted reading as long as they woke up and not be tired the next day. Rarely did they abuse that privilege and even rarer was that I stayed up longer than they did.
“Little Ballerina”
She still loves to read to learn new things.

Eternal Flame
While in New York, we were able to explore and visit some fun new places. Allan saved the best till last.
As we were getting ready to head home, Allan said that he had a place for us to stop in about two hours. He took us to Eternal Flame Falls trail in Orchard Park, New York. The hike was just over a mile and there were a bunch of steps. We also walked through water part of the way.
I would enjoy this hike again if we were in the area. It was a nice place to stretch our legs before the long drive home.
Never to Young
So nice to see the boys enjoying books already!
Decisions
Smiles
Two of my favorite smiles.
