Bears, Social Justice, & Birthdays







We woke up to the evidence of a larger visitor in the night.  The kids were surprised that the wind blew so hard to knock over our bird feeder, but upon closer inspection, clearly a bear came to visit last night.  I guess the upside here is that because our bees didn't survive the winter we didn't loose the bees and all of the hives to this bear.  

This week we were fortunate to have a bit of fellowship with our church family who we haven't seen in months.  It always makes our hearts happy when we can raise our voices for social justice for all groups in the spirit of our faith family.  

We actually saw friends this past weekend and got to have a catch-up birthday celebration.  When I say friends I really mean just seeing two other families, but when we have a birthday party in the mix it is always more fun.  Technically this is James' birthday time, but he was kind enough to share a small gathering with Audrey (and Noah, but he insisted we not celebrate his birthday too). It was fun to spend the afternoon playing outside with friends again!  This bottom picture also shows evidence that we are making steady progress on our tree house. More pictures to come soon!
