Baby Brother got remarried. . .

. . . to the same woman in a little over a year's time. . .

The family went to the east coast to visit Momma Foxtrot's family (more to come in a later post, or two, or three). Alphashak, the youngest brother, got remarried to his wife. There was no divorce, or separation, just a revisiting of their love for each other. It was a beautiful little ceremony up in the Catskill mountains.

Take a look.

Check out those coordinating outfits. 

Lainie and Foxtrot

Tango tore it UP on the dance floor. She had all the middle aged ladies in awe.

Foxtrot sat back, told stories, gave out bowling balls, and pretended to be a train.

These kids are a hoot. 

Papa's summer project #1

Papa just finished building a "platform" for the babes. Foxtrot is so in love with it.

Papa's proud.

It's been sunny and warm we have been spending a ton of time, naked and in the yard.  Tango loves all the animals, even Max.

the weekend. . . in black and white

It has been a lovely, PNW weekend. Complete with swimming pools, rain, camping, hiking, sun, roasting marshmallows, rain, cherries, sun, and friends.

I have been exploring the "effects" and features on our new camera. So what follows is a weekend of black and white photos.

Sweet Sweet Summer

Summer is here. 

And Tango has some interesting dentition.

Also, there is a new goat on the farm, Pequenya.

We all like her.

The boys have been building model airplanes.

And flying them off the roof of the garage.

Tango has been digging in the dirt.

Foxtrot is training for his first jousting match.

Papa has been helping the kids build ramps.

And he is looking mighty fine while doing it, despite fighting a major sore throat.
