the country

We finally were able to make it up to Num Num and Papa's this spring. With our busy schedule this year, and Ellie now in school, it has made these trips a little more difficult. But how I love to get out of town as a family and head to the country. I always make sure I have some good things to read and my camera. 

This particular day, the pastor and the kids helped out around the yard, mowing, cleaning out gutters, moving wood …. while Jessie romped and played and I, well…. took pictures!! 










Later in the afternoon, Jessie's bestest friend Lucy came to play. 

AND…. Papa took Miss Ellie out for her very FIRST drive!!!! Can you believe it? I was taking a nap when I heard her leave with him and I dreamed that she recked!! But in reality she did fabulous. I was thrilled that she and Papa were able to do that together. Lynden is the perfect little town for her to practice driving in!!  She is in the midst of Driver's Ed class this month. I've yet to take her out …. but soon!!! I cannot fathom that I have a child who is old enough to drive. Where in the world has the time gone?
