Independence Day

One the 4th of July, we headed out for a new family adventure - our first time cherry picking (at Moelker's Orchard.)


Micah was great at helping carry the bucket and pick cherries

Joy was "helping" from the stroller

Black sweet cherries

White gold cherries

We all came home and cooled down in the pool...

...though Joy preferred to observe from the sidelines

After another deliciously grilled dinner (thanks to my sweetie), Scotty and I watched "Taking Chance." It's a film that depicts the journey of a marine killed in battle being cared for and delivered back home by another marine escort (true story). It reminds me that many men and women have not only fought but also given their lives to secure our country's freedom. A heartfelt thanks to all you servicemen and women, along with your families, for your sacrifice and service!
