We've had an incredibly busy two days. Yesterday started with Mass at 7:30 after which we came home and made pancakes, drove an hour to a field trip at a farm, after that decided to drive around the local historic sites, drove back to town and went cherry picking, stopped for milk, came home and pitted the sixteen pounds of cherries and made six pies finishing at about never mind what time at night. Today we started with Mass after which the girls tidied the whole house including the cherried kitchen, did laundry and made bread while the menfolk mowed and fertilized the lawn. Then it was off to a lovely picnic including football, volleyball, sword fighting, lots of good food and good friends and fellowship and finishing up with a rosary at dusk. Whew. The picture is of Kateri but that's how we all feel. It's been a wonderful, memorable two days but now it's really time to get some rest!
Hope your Fourth was a terrific one!
