MORE!

MORE from the summer!!!

Our friends Bruce and Cheyanne celebrated their wedding.  Our two little ones were charming additions as flower girl and ring bearer... and I was able to help out by doing the flowers.  
So much fun by all!!










I love this pic of utter exhaustion for Sol.  We played hard in the river, and he fell asleep with the goggles still on!!


Our little ham!


We got chickens!  We have 6 hens and 14 fryers which we will butcher and eat throughout the winter.  It has been SO much fun sharing this "farm" experience with Sol and Soph!



LOTS and LOTS of homemade popsicles this summer!




...and lots of gathering!


...and bottling!  Ray finally bottled his blackberry and two grape wines, which sat in their carboys for over a year!


Another wedding- lots of flowers this summer...



Ray made the beer for the wedding of our friends Aaron and Jenny, while I did their flowers.  So much fun to have hops as one of their themes!


My "baby" burritos!

the growing bebe....

Let me first exclaim, WE HAVE INTERNET!!!
yipee!!
this little blog is now back on a roll!

so let's first take a look at what's been stewing around the Schafer household...
a GROWING belly!!



I am now 34 weeks as of tomorrow; carrying a little man about the size of a large pineapple, and weighing approximately 4ish pounds.  
He moves constantly, so much more that the snug Sol and Soph did.  I have been feeling the initial pregnancy discomforts as my hips begin to widen and my body grows with fatigue, but that is to be expected.  I just cant believe we get to meet our little man so soon!
Oh, and still no name.... We're hoping it hits us when he arrives!!!
