So serious

Captain Jack has a new facial expression that he makes when he is being serious, I think. We see him do this when he is figuring out new people or when he appears to be concentrating on what it is we're doing. It doesn't appear to come out because he's upset or angry, just when he's somewhat pensive. Cracks us up.

Sleeping Beauty?

Catherine is usually the first one awake in our house. Not this morning. Three of us were up and getting ready for Monday when Christian went to wake up Catherine. We weren't sure what this would bring. Her response? "Daddy, go away, I'm sleeping." Ah, a preview of the teenage years...

Sweet Berry Farm

On Saturday we went to a Farm with the Farm (that would be State Farm) for family berry-picking and BBQ. Uncle Brett and Aunt Aimee came too and we got over 12 pounds of berries between us! It was muddy from all the rain we had, but we had a great time and are all enjoying the fruits of our labor! Catherine wore her strawberry dress in honor of the occasion. It probably would have been good to get a photo in front of the strawberry patch, but we'll have to settle for the wooden strawberry and the blackberry patch in the background instead!
