Woodpile

This is Gord's effort from two weekends ago - a couple of hours work, few bucks passed along, and wala! A picturesque pile of wood in the backyard. Gord threw Jethro in front of it for some photos, but I'm sure that was just a ploy to get more people to look at his handiwork!


(Jethro is sooo chubby - love it! Not crawling yet, that's why...)


We have two cherry trees in our backyard, which are fruiting - to our delight! Cherries for Christmas!


Washing day - washing the winter woolens in order to pack them away as we head into summer. An excuse for bubbles on the deck. I think the kids were interested for ten minutes and then I had to do the rest!

And Jethro didn't pull his weight at all! (Hey, nice blanket, Tam!)
Lastly, Gord took this shot of the kids absolutely loving shelling broad beans from our garden. Broad beans, if you didn't know, require two shellings, and they were giggling about shooting the inner bean out of the middle skin. Very funny, but you can't really get that in this photo - we kind of look stoned. Well, I look stoned and Piper looks maniacal and who knows what Jasper's thinking!

Love to you all - thinking of our many friends and family in between these very infrequent posts...
