Wonderful waterfalls

We are blessed to live around a multitude of beautiful waterfalls. We took a nice hike with the little ones on our backs to check some of them out. Kelwyn and Adeline enjoyed their rides and views. Adeline took a little nap up the mountain from one of the waterfalls to the next.
It was amazing to see nature at its finest and so peaceful to hear the rushing water beside us. The only mistake we made was forgetting our bathing suits!

Blackberry galore

We went blackberry picking this weekend. I have never seen such big, juicy berries! They were absolutely delicious and I could not help filling my belly full as we were picking them off the vine. Our fingers were stained purple after we were done and we came home with about 9 pounds of blackberries. We will freeze half of them and have a nice treat when snow is on the ground. I think I will make blackberry cobbler tomorrow night and we may have enough for some jam. Yum!

Books and cruising

Kelwyn loves our trips to the library for new books, so I thought I would make him a little bag. I got the pattern from a great book, Sewing Bits and Pieces. It turned out so cute and he was very pleased with his new bag full of books. Back home for story time.Adeline has been cruising all around the house and pulls up on everything. She will find anything that moves, empty boxes, highchair, and walk behind it. It is so funny!
She may be walking soon.
