Catching Up!!

I was out of town last week (see below) so here are two weeks of collages at once!


First week of summer vacation!!
The first week of summer vacation was amazing!
We made our new summer list!
We held baby chicks at the Library Summer Reading Kick off!
We biked to Bauermann Blueberry Market for redskins for dinner!!  And stopped to look at the giant 'wishing flower'.  And stopped to read Harry Potter in the shade of a tree at the garden.
We ate watermelon (not from Michigan) at the Farmers Market!  And enjoyed more Michigan Strawberries!
We made daddy a rad Father's Day t-shirt on a real screen press.
We read quietly in the morning before mommy woke up (all dressed and ready for the day!)
And we even went to the zoo!


Anna's week at Gainey Ranch in Montana
I was blessed to be selected to travel with a group of faculty and students from Hope College, to Gainey Ranch in Glen Montana.  We spent a week in the beauty of nature discussing the first year experience at Hope College (and laughing, and hiking, and praying, and laughing....)

A great poem I read at the airport in GR before taking off for Montana.
Flying in over the mountains
The amazing chapel on the ranch.
Sunset on the ranch (2)
Moose right outside our meeting/meal hall at the ranch.
Taking a moment to lay back and relax after a hike in the mountains (straight ahead is my cabin)
View out the back window of the cabin I shared with 3 amazing ladies!
Another moment to lay down and read after another busy day!
The hike to Agnes Lake.  We climbed 1500 feet to 7840 feet.  It snowed.  Amazing.
View from the Big Hole National Battlefield.
Little bunny outside of the chapel on Friday morning.

Blessing abound!
