A few days just the 3 of us...

Sunday July 3 kicked off three whole days off together and we had no plans.  We actually had nothing on our calendar, nothing on our to-do list but what we felt so moved to tackle, and no worries.  What did we do with our time??  I tried to capture our accomplishments/laziness/relaxing in photos!  Enjoy.

We found a killer deal on some thornless blackberry bushes...and blueberry bushes.  Jer got them planted, watered and all set up.  I hope they do as well as their tags they say they will!

 Blackberries!


Blueberries!!


I practiced with my camera and enjoyed the nature around our yard.  

I love the blooms on our butterfly bushes!!




Our yard has lots of old trees. I think these old knots on the side of the tree are pretty neat!


Owen enjoying his backyard!



Hanging our first bird feeder!  Owen's such a big helper :)




 Tricycle riding!!  Owen got two great tricycles for his birthday...and we tried out both of them after a jaunt in the sprinkler.  Too fun!




This in my mind was an unforgettable weekend!  We had some wonderful family time.  Enjoyed our house, our yard and each other!  I love that we took a step out of reality without even leaving town.  Thank God for small blessings that mean so much!
