A touch of summer

 So, I stole my dad's camera again the other day and was looking through pictures and realized that I had missed downloading an entire photo shoot.  I thought a couple of the pictures were too cute to keep to myself.  So, while the snow flies outside, enjoy some pics of summer.

Have you figured out what E is busy doing (other than being adorable, of course)?   I think I've found one of my new favorite places to take pictures.  The barn makes a great backdrop, I think.

Dad and E were out picking blackcaps (a.k.a. black raspberries) and Dad came in and told me I had to come see my daughter.  I went out and she had climbed this piece of driftwood all by herself.  Dad was on the other side of the patch and when he came around...there she was happily sitting and eating.

I had her climb back up for me...so I could she how she got up there.  She got picked a couple of times by the briers she told me...but all the 'good' berries were up there.  So, up she went.

She had a great time picking with G'pa...well, until she got stung by a wasp later in the summer.  But, G'pa 'took care' of that so that it wouldn't happen again.

She picked many more berries than in her bowl...but most of them went straight to her tummy.

and the ones that didn't end up in her tummy immediately, ended up there before she reached the house.  :)
