Nature Trails

More hiking! Eric took the pictures this time. :-D

Crawdads

A rite of passage. Sam & Dan caught their own last time we were here, now it's Tom & Troy's turn!

More Fun

Mini-golfing and swimming...

Hidden Bluffs

We went hiking and exploring!

Lark Toys

We're stopping by Lark Toys on our way down to Hidden Bluffs for our last big camping trip of the season. The weather is perfect, and we're looking forward to enjoying nature and each other! 💚

Home Canned Garden Goodies

We grow quite a bit of our food. A lot of it gets eaten right away (we have a big family), some is stored in our freezers, some is stored in our root cellar, and we can what we can! 😂

Peaceful Evening

A peaceful evening...prrrfect for enjoying on the lookout stump.

Weather Station Maintenance

Eric Crafton is fixing the weather station on top of our garage today. 💓

School Shelf

My sweet hubby, Eric Crafton & his dad, Jerry Dale Crafton built a bookshelf for some of the boys' school books today. I love it! Jerry is here for about a week, and has been working with Eric on projects around the house.💓

The Beginnings of the Boys' Treehouse

Sam & his neighbor friend, John (with limited help from the twins & Dan), have been working on a tree house this summer. They have a lot more they plan on doing to finish it before the snow flies! Hopefully we'll have a mild change of seasons, and plenty of time for more outdoor activities.
