Jemma really wanted to fly a kite today,

so I hooked it to the clothesline,

gave her the string in the yard,

and look at it fly!!!!

...and then when the kite-flying was over,

it was time for a little artwork.
What a fun-full day!!!

During "heat wave '09"

we spent ALOT of time in the much cooler basement... ...I guess it was just a bit too cool for Jemma (-:

Clean summer fun... ...water and dirt!!

Someone is getting a pedicure.......hold still, I'm almost done...

When we planted our garden this spring, Jemma kept asking for broccoli.

Well, here it is....how does it look?

It tasted great!!

Patiently waiting while Daddy checks all the lumber....

So proud of her "signature".

Relaxing with a good book after church.

In Jemma's mind

summeris all about pools and picnics. oh yeah,

and long winter socks in 40 degree weather (-:

More fun at the big pool.
