middle of August

Melanie went off camping with a friend. I booked the route for the girls. Philip made sure the canoe was tied down properly.

Evelyn all dressed up in a dress she made out of garbage bags. She mad her own wig as well.

Matthew made some long ladders for the chickens to climb to get into their extended yard. They did not like it. If we put them on they'd go back down, and not carry on to the yard. Too long and scary. They are truly chickens.
Where the mess for projects has been piling up. And the crafty girls busy at work.
Jennifer ready for battle.

Evelyn got some repurposed curtains. Now all she needs is a wardrobe.
Matthew in the garage. Planning to make me something useful. Perhaps a rototiller, since mine died and is in for repair and we don't know if the part will ever come in from China or not.
The babysitters rushing home.  A storm is coming. They made it just in the nick of time. I'm glad they made it, but also that they stayed together.
Melanie is tired of granola bars for work, and since she is home early because of bad weather, she is making us some cookies. :) Or her some cookies.
Jennifer's next dress. The back.
And the front. She sure put it together quickly. It looks so bright and cheerful.
Evelyn made an eye patch. Her dress is too complicated and the team work approach fell apart.
Jennifer did work at it a while for Evelyn. Until they lost patience with each other. Anyone want to help Evelyn finish her dress? Before she outgrows the pieces?
Daniel loves setting up play zones on his floor.
One day we did our bike route. It's so lovely when we get to the trail in the woods. And we can take our helmets off too!
One day when we came home from visiting a friend we stopped for lunch at A&W. We'd never had root beer in a frosted mug before, so we tried it. So good.

I hadn't realize that Evelyn had made her wig as well! Your kids are so creative!
