The pumpkin that we carved while Poppy was here has died a horrible death so we went and picked out new ones. Call me a wimp but instead of carving them we drew faces on them. Carter and Nathan seemed to enjoy … Continue reading

Today was the big day .. Ben and Helen’s wedding. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a more beautiful wedding dress. Helen’s great-grandmother wore the dress in 1907. It was Victorian and absolutely exquisite! Carter and Nathan were the flower children and did … Continue reading
