Fall is officially here!

Wow September seems to have snuck by and here we are in October already.
We enjoyed a lovely cruise to the beautiful Northeast here are a few pictures.

August ends with Hurricane Isaac!

 Don't worry we did not have any impact from Issac.  Many in the deep south felt it's rath though.Here are a few pictures of what's been happening around our home this past month.

Nick Celebrated his 22nd Birthday!

School is back in session and that means both boys are hitting the books!

These strips need to be sewn together, hopefully next month there will be a top to share! 

Shot a couple textures around the yard this one might make a nice desktop background. It's large (18x11). If you use it please link back or comment.

Light test run, still have much to do before the fountain is complete.
Happy Fall!

July was a Blast!

This month was a blast! It started with all the boys off working with Darren in California and Texas. Jacquie and I celebrated Independence Day by lighting sparklers with Bennett. 

A beach day at IOP

Lots of work days away from home for Darren and the boy's this month. I tagged along on one road trip to NC.

An adventure with Jacquie and Bennett to a local place we have never been too. Bee City where you can purchase local hone products and feed the pets they have acquired. Our favorite were the Ring tailed Lemurs.

Bennett loved the wooden train the best. 

Oh what a June it was!

June always brings Summer fun!
Girls Camp, Fathers Day, Work & Play.
 The month went by so very fast here are a few pictures I captured with my iPhone.

Nick & Derek helping with the yard work before leaving for some real work in Cali & Texas.

Loaf pans are so much fun to stand in!

Managed to get to the beach during the 2 day lay over at home before heading to Cali.

No more hair in the eyes!

The Kitchen (outdoor)

We enjoyed visiting with everyone at the Wheeler/Martineau family reunion in Utah.

Spring has marched right in...

This has been a great month! I have had some great opportunities to practice shooting photo's.

I have also decided to add a Creative Commons license to our blog. That means that you may still lift the pictures here, the only thing that has changed is they may not be used for commercial purposes without consent from the photographer. If you are posting to your personal blog please link back or give credit to the photographer. 

On to the themes for the month.
