Updates

It's been two weeks since Olivia joined the family, but it already feels like she's always been a part. Mary Claires LOVES holding her as often as we will let her. Emma is super sweet about telling Olivia how much she loves her. We are definitely adjusting well to being a family of five.

Sadly, the heat and dryness (along with the new baby) has brought our garden to a bit of a stand-still. The second planting for the summer did not quite happen, but the fall planting has begun. We are still getting a little here and there, but should be back in business in another month or so with some fall produce.

Today's task - Allen is making and canning salsa. A bit larger of a task than he expected.... the pot has ended up huge! We are looking forward to some good, homemade salsa all winter long. Thank you Granny and Papa for the extra tomatoes!
