While Becky and I were shooting a wedding, the kids spent Labor Day weekend with their grandparents; you’ll have to ask them what happened, but the Oregon State Fair was definitely involved.

We signed up for a share of a salmon CSA, and Lucy went with me to pick up our loot. They helpfully loaned us a wagon to get our cooler to the car.

Becky’s photo of Lucy at the Awesome 3000 showed up in an ad for SKEF!

At Audrey’s birthday, Lucy made herself a crown. It’s sparkly.

A trip to the craft store is always fun.

She also got a haircut. Note Becky’s photos on the wall; we own part of this salon.

My volunteer work was to help set up for the school carnival; here are some of my cohorts.

After a rain, we discovered water seeping out of an interior wall in the basement. It’s not a plumbing leak, it turns out our house just doesn’t drain well.

Fortunately (?), we’re already starting a remodeling project. Here’s the first thing they installed:

CSA delivery day is always a cause for surprise, delight, and celebration.
