Jon Turns 17 and Liz Visits

 

The sunflowers are blooming! They are so fun. We saw a yellow Goldfinch sitting on top of the tall sunflower the other day. He was bending over to maybe poke seeds out of the middle. Bright yellow on bright yellow was delightful! 

A sad story for our little kittens. Momma cat got scared by a dog the other day, and we didn't see the cats for a while and Abigail wasn't eating either. They are starting to come out from under the house now, but we haven't seen the soft gray ones ~ only the two little tabbies. So I'm really afraid they are not with us anymore. 
Sad face.



Jonathan invited kids over for his birthday. 
They played games and ate food. They are a fun, rambunctious crowd, and we're always pleased to have them.



And Elizabeth was here this weekend too! 
It's so much fun to have all the kids together. They are hilarious to listen to. She'll be starting her sophomore year of college in a couple of weeks. She's had a good summer doing paintings and photography around Joplin, making more knitting patterns, working at the dry cleaner, hanging out with her summer-home family. 





Our before-bed hangouts are a joy for us parents. We love you, kids.
