Wild Maine Blueberries and Some Pool Fun!
Today we took the kids out to rake blueberries behind our house. This is the third time we have been out, but we have not raked this much before. We had daddy with us today so he was able to fill a bowl quite quickly. The boys had fun. They found some blackberries and quickly made that their home for the rest of the journey. Brody sat in his stroller and was content as long as someone was continuously feeding him berry's. I raked while constantly thinking " please Lord don't let me get any tick's on me, please!" I didn't. I am terrified of ticks. They are just so disgusting to me. Fortunately we all made it back tick free. Brody had a few misquitoe bites, but other than that we were clean. On our way back home we found a bunch of blackberry bushes that should be ready in a few more days. Randy and I spent a couple of hours picking through that bowl in the picture. Cleaning out all the leaves and sticks. We only made it through a quarter of them. I guess I know what I will be doing tomorrow.
We have been spending quite a bit of time at the pool this summer. It has been good for the kids. Calvin and Grant are pretty much swimming on there own now. Brody loves his float. He has no fear of the water so we really have to keep an eye on him. I will post a video of Calvin jumping in the water. At the beginning of the summer he wouldn't even get in the pool without his life jacket so this is a big accomplishment for him.
I can't believe how quickly summer is coming to an end. We will be taking a trip to Boston's Childrens Museum this week for our last bit of summer fun before school starts. Grant and Brody have birthday's coming up at the end of the month. Brody has been walking everywhere all of a sudden. A lot has happend in such a short time, and there is a lot more to come. I will try to keep up with my post of our upcoming fun.

Psalm 84
I have been reading Audrey Caroline's blog. If you haven't read it you must. What a blessing! This Psalm is so awesome! Do you yearn for the courts of the Lord?
Psalm 84
1 How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord Almighty!
2 My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the living God.
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may have her young—
a place near your altar,
O Lord Almighty, my King and my God.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
they are ever praising you.
Selah
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
7 They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God in Zion.
8 Hear my prayer, O Lord God Almighty;
listen to me, O God of Jacob.
Selah
9 Look upon our shield, O God;
look with favor on your anointed one.
10 Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold
from those whose walk is blameless.
12 O Lord Almighty,
blessed is the man who trusts in you.
