Summertime and the livin is easy

One of Gabe's favorite restaurants- in his words "for special occasions". Fujiyama Japanese steak house with cousin Kassidi Aunt Cindy and Grandma Mary Jane

He's been fixated on this pocket French book. He asked us once on a car ride once if we'd like to know the names of some French food and wine.

He's a big help to Mom!

Early B-day presents from PaPaw Pat, Uncle Alex, Aunt Tina and Olivia!

"The Collection" . This should be a post entirely to itself- maybe it will be someday. This collection- currently housed in an antique toy suitcase Gabe purchased at auction, is full of interesting artifacts only a person so close to the earth could discover. A recent addition is a shard of milky white glass with scalloped edging with the date "July 20 1886" on it. Gabe unearthed it at Buttermilk Hill while "working" in the veggie garden.
