We enjoyed a lovely little afternoon on the Russian River with friends. I have known these women for years and consider myself blessed by their friendship.

Alan went fishing while the older girls caught tiny fish.


Here is Isabel and her fellow Madonna loving friend, Maddy. They've known each other since they were just toddlers.

Isabel fell in love with Maddy's little kitten.

Gabriel was content to play in the sand with his little dog.

We had a fabulous time at the local fair!

They had a great farm to table display. The kids ran around milking the plastic cow, collecting eggs from the plush chickens and pulling up play vegetables.


Isabel loved the electric drums and rocked out a bit.


The petting zoo is always a favorite.

Happiness is spending all day at the fair with your good friends!
