Nature Study has been big this summer since we were cooped up this winter. We have also met up with a couple other homeschooling families to enjoy our nature study together. The kids have really been enjoying it. They love to draw in their nature journals and I have several flowers being pressed for Lilliana's nature journal. She is my collector and wants rocks, pine cones, branches, etc. I am working up some sort of shelf to hold all of her things. 

We have frequented the farmers market. The favorite thing is to watch the man make kettle corn. 

Lot's and Lot's of homeschool planning and figuring out what direction to go with interruptions like this. She is cute so I let it go:)

Garden watching and picking

 

Rain, lots and lots of rain with rainbows

A stinky little boy who wants to be around me all the time....no peace even in the bathroom.
Thankfully he is cute and sweet and I don't mind it most of the time. 

Sunday Church and naps on the way home

It has been a wonderful couple of months. 

Annual Queen Ann's Lace Pictures

These photos have been sitting in Lightroom for almost a month waiting to be edited. I am glad I took them when I did or I never would have been able to get them done this year. If you have followed my blog I have been taking Lilliana every year and photographing her in the Queen Ann's Lace flowers which are actually wild carrots I learned. This year was my favorite I think as a wonderful friend let me use her field which is FILLED with the flowers. She also is wearing an outfit her Great Grandma made for her.

My heart longs for time to slow down. She is getting so big and I think about the fact this is the 3rd year I have done these!!!! 3 years! I feel like she was just born!! I envision one day sitting in my rocking chair pouring over my photo albums and crying, laughing, and reminiscing about these kids. They may make me crazy, but I know they are wonderful Blessings!
