Pictures From Saturday

As you know, on saturday we went to the

Market:

While there, Grace and I went on a little walk. We started out on a little cement trail that twisted around the building. After finding the window that looks in at our stand (the market is in a basement) and waving hi to our brothers we continued on our merry way.

It was hard to find the window as there are SO many and it looks totally different on the outside. So, we walk along and suddenly the path stops. Where it stops there is a little creek. So we

Jump over it:

Hanging from a log on the creek was an

Icicle:

Why, do curious lookin gates and fences have

Signs like these on them?

or padlocks?

at least there are some pretty curlicues them!

The pealing paint is more than likely lead paint!

back in the Marcato. . .

Nathanael peeks around a corner into the sweet shop

where his sister Grace is being treated to mint chocolate cookie icecream by an elderly lady.

While go through the drive thru book return at the library we spotted a Mourning Dove

on her nest!

We stopped by my favorite grocery store and bought organic triple cream brie, brie with chives, fresh organic olives and a few other things. There was also brie cheese on sample so we all tasted a little bit of crackers under a slather of brie!

After shopping, we drive to the countryside where we used to live to buy some barley for our sheep. Daddy and David were talking so long with the farmer that Grace and got out of the truck and started waking down the road. Our destination was our friend's house who live about six miles from the farmer's place. We only made it past the two german shepherds who threatened us with bared teeth and barks before the rest of our family picked us up. A little over a mile.

At our friends we had some dinner and then jumped on their trampoline.

We also took pictures

of friends. . .
