4th of July fireworks.  I was playing with my zoom while the shutter was open.

Reminds me of meteors crashing to earth.

I haven't seen fireworks like this for a long time.  I wish New Mexico wasn't so dry in the summer.

Mr. Adorable discovered he has pockets.

Gage LOVES hats.  Here he borrowed one from the neighbor.

Rob, orange life jacket & blindfolded on left, competing in the "blind fold rowboat races".  One adult, one child teams, go around the buoy & back to the dock, the fastest time wins. (they didn't win)

Rob rounded the buoy first!

They were singing a duet.  She was making the chords with her left hand while he strummed with his right hand.  I really enjoyed listening to them.

Precious moments, Rob teaching Gage how to do dishes.

Happiness like this is contageous!

Did I mention, Gage loves hats.

Gage playing with the big boys on the trampoline.

Serious play.

All these toys he finds belong to various neighbors and he is sad when we go home.

10-noon Friday & Saturdays the Gymnasium hosts "Preschool Park".  It is fun to watch G play & meet local parents.

More "Preschool Park". 


Many beautiful sunny days here!

A house we are thinking about buying...

Week 2 in Petersburg

This is the first time I posted videos.  I posted 5 of them, I hope they worked out ok...

This first video is some of Gage's new vocabulary.  When he says his name its the same every time "Di Dih"  I have no idea what he means but here's the video...


Gage playing on a trampoline.

Rob found this in the woods.  It's an amphibious vehicle.

This video makes me laugh every time I see it...
