So it was a great day for cooking and baking: I made 2 loaves of bread, a pot of veggie/beef stew and a chocolate chess pie. The boys played Legos and listened to an audio tape of Harry Potter. And big Eric found something to do in the shop. He has the chicken coop all finished and the chicks are in their new home. This weekend we will be putting up the chicken poultry fence so they can be pasture-raised. They are doing great and growing so big! I would include a photo or two, but I accidentally erased all my new photos from my Galaxy! I am sooo mad at myself! But next time, I'll be sure to add pics.
Rabbit lost his first tooth yesterday, so the Tooth Fairy came to ATG for the first time! He was so excited and looks so cute with a little soace in his bottom row... because he waited til almost 7 to lose his first, they'll probably all fall out now!
We all went blackberry-picking the other day and Tina, our neighbor from the farm below, gave us a bucket of raspberries as weel, so I will be canning jam for the raspberries and a blackberry cobbler... although it's unusually hot here (besides the rainy day). There's usually a delightful breeze you can count on up here and low humidity, but it's been pretty hot.
I thought I left all that heat behind in Richmond.... yuck!!!!
We've found a great little church here with the nicest folks. The boys start VBS this week, and then we will stick our little toes into the homeschool pool week after next! So please pray for patience and guidance...
I'll have to blog again soon with pics, but now I have to go visit Eric's grandma who had a spill recently and is not doing so well, so please keep her in your prayers, as you all are in ours!

N. will be so jealous when he hears about the lost tooth! He is the LAST one of everyone he knows to lose a tooth. And nothing's even loose! :)
Tell him to be patient... He has to lose one eventually! Rabbit thought it'd never happen...I hope you guys are well and look forward to a visit....love to you all
