Reagan started the second grade on August 1.  Here she is with her new book bag getting ready to go to her first day of second grade. 

Bye-bye sweet sister.  Raleigh will start kindergarten on Monday so her "free" time is almost over.  How quickly they grew up!! 

Here's Meredith and baby boy (still not named!).  He's a big fella.   

Hey, it is watermelon season.  Poor Meredith is carrying around a huge watermelon in all this heat! 

Raleigh and I went to the garden to pick some scallions this morning for the chicken salad I'm making for dinner.  Look at those pretty tomatoes.  Love, love summer for one reason.........TOMATOES!!! 

Oops, I think there's someone hiding in the tomatoes......could it be a Raleigh? 

My sweet husband has planted several pumpkin patches for me.  We, of course, need pumpkins for the barn sale in October.  What would a fall sale be without pumpkins?  I hope these guys are ready for October.  According to Mark's accurate calculations, we are right on schedule!!

New class schedule is on the web site if you want to take a look.  I'll be sending out newsletters in the next day or so.  If you're not on my mailing list and want to be added, just drop me a note.

Today is watermelon day at the Farmer's Market so go have some watermelon and celebrate the season!!
