Big boy bed

James got a new big boy bed! I had not planned to purchase a new bed for James since his crib converts to a full size bed (if you have the conversion kit, which we never purchased...) and it is really nice. However, one of our neighbors was moving and I just could not resist this set! He loves it. We didn't put the desk on the end, so he has a little play cave and Jim bought a rope light and mounted it under the bed which is perfect for "camping" and playing. I hope this lasts for many years to come!

I made blueberry butter. I picked the blueberries from Pungo and cooked them in the crockpot, so it was pretty easy. I'm hoping to pick apples this fall and make applebutter, too. There is something really nice knowing exactly what your family is eating!

Here is Jemma in her bed with all of her animals. One of new favorite games is to pretend that she is the teacher and the animals are her students.

We are just soaking in "Daddytime" since he departs tomorrow for a quick trip...
