A visit with a snake

Today, my dad found a garter snake on the walk to our house.  He brought the new friend in to meet the boys.

Here are some pics

Of course they wanted to keep him, but we sent him back to his home where dad found him.  They have a new best friend that they will look for every time they walk up to mom and dads.

Some new photos, and a wonderful magazine to share

Today is the August Launch of The Rhythm of the Home Magazine.  Hop over and see all of the AMAZING tutorial,s and interviews that make the magazine so special.  Oh...and Julia is the Associate Editor over at the magazine, so that makes me love it more...HEHEHE

Oh, and I added my Crochet Capelet pattern to the issue, so you can grab that if you like too!

Baby Reindeer

There were two new babes born at the Reindeer barn over the past couple days. 

The boys and I went to see them, they were so in love!

Mama and her baby~she chased away any of the other Reindeer that came near.  Love of a mother is so strong in all species.

All snuggled up at Mama's feet, tired from his second day of life

Finding her voice and following her Mama, precious!
