The last month in photoblog...to Family Photo Project- June

Well, gosh.
This blog is turning into just the Family Photo Project record! But, I don't have the time to properly keep up with this hamster wheel existence.

Since the last blog entry of FPP 2015- May,
I have been to France-
Lyon,
 Cassis,
Annecy,
and Paris,
 where I met up with Middlest, after her wonderful week with Xenia (last year, Xenia came to us for a few weeks of summer, this year Middlest went to her home in Paris...)


 I have taken the horse kids to Show Jumping

and Dressage Rallies in the Cleveland area,

 where they, with their Pony Club teams, did a bang-up job under threatening skies, but with final approval from a rainbow....

lost Eldest to her happy place on the Chesapeake Bay- where she is camp counseling for the summer,

 sent Huz to his parent's house for a week long visit and a locum at UF's Vet School,


celebrated Middlest's 17th Birthday! ....

and built a garden house with the guidance and clarity of help from my Dad, who carved out a week to join us at Cowfeathers Farm, and put in brain power, skill and some heavy lifting. We aren't done, but boy, did we make progress! The project, helmed by my Dad, was assisted by Youngest and Middlest's friend, Matt. With a bit of labor by me, and roofing help from Huz. Middlest was the grease for the wheel of progress by providing a constant supply of refreshment, baked goods (including a sour cherry pie from our tree) and lunches.


With all this, and the rest of the juggling of jobs and home, I think we are all a bit topsy-turvy.


But, we are heading into another curve, and June isn't getting any longer, so we took the opportunity of Poppie's visit to do the Family Photo Project 2015 for June! Sadly, without Eldest, but she is having great adventures just so.
