Ribs and Crayfish

We had a fun fourth of July. Went down to Escanaba to drop some door handles off for Kile that I made and cut the lawn. Then we stopped at the Rapid River to catch a few crayfish for our pond. Went to one of Naomi's colleagues house for a party where the girls got to try ribs for the first time. They also got to ride a horse and play with the dogs. 

I finally put together the firewood cribs this week and cleaned up a couple brushpiles. Made some progress on the chicken coop as well, but it is getting a bit late for chickens and Dominic doesn't seem to have many. Hopefully we can find a solution!

Naomi has started painting the doors downstairs. Lots of work. At least we get a break from the heat. The girls had their soccer game canceled because it was too hot this week! Sure felt good to swim in the big lake. Amélie refused to put on her swimsuit because she only wanted to get her feet wet. Of course she ended up swimming in her clothes. 

If anyone asks, it's not a shed, it's a raised bed!

Abigail needs some practice.

Searching for crayfish.

Horse riding lessons!

Lots of fun at the old farm.
