12 of 12 - August


1 - Exercise is more fun with these guys. This is mid-jumping jack.

2 - Caspar Babypants concert in Tukwila.

3 - Ivy on the freeway overpass. I can't help but imagine these will be vibrant reds and oranges in just a couple of months.

4 - It's 1:00 in the afternoon and 69 degrees. There's been plenty of complaints around these parts about the cooler-than-average summer we're having, but none of them have come from me. Cool nights and mornings + sunny days + mild temperatures = perfect summer!

5 - A quiet chunk of time to relax and watch last night's episode of Project Runway. Tim Gunn makes that show!

6 - Got Lydia's quilt back from the machine quilter. I love it! Now all I have to do is bind it and it's ready for her bed!

7 - The kids got their prize from the library for completing their summer reading charts - kaleidoscopes!

8 - This girl thinks she can do everything herself, even down to slicing herself a piece of cheese. And no, I don't leave my kids unattended with sharp knives. Just saying.

9 - We have a little secret gate that connects our back yard to our neighbor's yard, and it's like I have free babysitting every afternoon when they go over and play! This is Cassandra sitting in the hammock with the kids. They love her!

10 - A couple of green pumpkins that look promising for Halloween.

11 - Tomato plants don't look as promising, other than a few yellow blossoms. That's the only reason I wish the summer were warmer. Don't know if we'll get much from these plants!

12 - Grilled turkey burgers for dinner - yum!

I love these. They're so fun to look at and read. How do you put all those pictures in one frame?
