Garden Time ...

July 9, 2016
The morning was spent in the garden ...
gathering the broccoli ... peas... cauliflower ... Kohlrabi ...
a few potatoes and carrots ...
The kids taking time out for some lunch ...
then back into the pool ... swimming around with their snorkels ...
Ella helped out with hanging up the towels ...
while I was busy in the kitchen ...
There were afternoon showers ... with a beautiful rainbow over the field ...
we headed back down to the garden ...
to pick fresh raspberries ... lettuce and peas ...
perfect for our evening meal ...
The vegetables were prepared and vacuumed sealed ... ready for the freezer ...
then it was time to get dinner prepared ...
the kids were starving ...
Craig finally made it back to the house ...
from his canoeing trip ...
and James and Ella went up to Marysville for the night ...
Craig was determined to check out the box ...
that had been stored in the white shed out back ...
These little toys had been tucked away for years ...
Craig spent a few hours going thru them all ...
tossing out the broken ones ...
then hauling the good ones downstairs to be washed and disinfected ...
He was amazed at what their dad and Uncle Ian collected ...
most of them were from the Happy Meals from McDonald's ...
 
It was nice to spend the evening with Craig ...
