August's Golden Glow

Our August is flying by with most of our time spent outside, swimming, playing, gardening.  We've learned a lot about growing things with a forest and deer behind your home.  (Almost all of our sunflowers were eaten). We've eaten so much zucchini and beans!  We've said goodbye to our Rooster who has become too rowdy for our small flock and we're beginning to order books for our next school year.  As the crickets begin their daily song and the green trees begin to crisp, we are thankful for summer's joys.
