Baby Birds

"I like to walk about amidst the beautiful things that adorn the world." Eugene Field

Ok, so they are not so beautiful but we have been blessed to watched a second set of baby birds on our front porch this year. The mother robin sat on her four eggs for about two weeks. They hatched about a week ago. Soon they will hop out of their front porch nest. They are so much fun to watch! I hope you enjoy our little video of them being fed.

Samuel's Pack Meeting

Sam had a great pack meeting tonight at the church pavilion. They had awards, a retiring of the flag ceremony and then everyone got to make smores. Here are some great pictures of the evening. Samuel got his forester, geologist, and naturalist. Way to go Sam!

Bless the flowers…Bless the bees…Bless the wild flowers…but not the weeds!

My flowers have been so pretty this year with all the rain that I just need to share them with everyone. Hope you enjoy the colors!

Taylor's Emergency Room Visit!

On Thursday Evening Taylor was having a good time with his friends, chasing doorbell ditchers, when he tripped over a rock and landed on another one. He took a big chunck out of his knee and had a big gash below his knee. Jim took him into the emergency room at 10:30 and at 1:00 a.m. and 13 stitches later they came home. He'll have a great scar to show everyone!

The Taylor Family Reunion in Junction, UT

We had a great time in Junction, UT. at the Taylor Family Reunion. We were able to visit with all of Jim's brothers and sisters and IlaRae and Bill as well as all the other 60 extended family. It was a lot of fun and the boys had a good time with their cousins. Aren't families wonderful!
