I'm not one to get my hands dirty so I continued to take pictures of them digging potatoes but then decided that I wanted to get some cool pictures of the sunflowers growing just beyond the garden in the field plot for the wild animals. I was disappointed that most of the sunflowers had lost their petals but I was able to find a few pretty flowers to get some good pictures.
Later in the afternoon my niece and nephew and I went outside to take some pictures. My niece came up with the idea that I would take pictures and not show them what pictures I took on my camera that day but I would print off the pictures and mail them my favorites. I just got the pictures back from Walgreens and put together an envelop of pictures for each one of them. I can't share too many of our pictures here because they need to see what I captured first. Here is a preview of our fun together.
Yes I let them play with swords(sticks) on a rock in my parents yard. Luckily no one was hurt. They were actually playing really nice together and swing the sticks slowly. 
Below is what my parents put together to get us all to come visit more often. I have been out to my parents' house 3 times now this summer. We have made yummy smores!
