JULY FUN



Our little ham (wonder where she gets that from?)

Avery has recently said she wants to be a pilot here she tries her skill on the small-scale

First tomato from Avery's garden

Making Smores-Again Max N Ruby Inspired some have Norman Rockwell we have two bunnies

Oh How does the garden grow.

Inspired by Max and Ruby on Noggin, Avery decided she wanted a garden.

In the space of a 3ftx3ft square we planted two tomato plants, pepper plant, basil, pumpkins, radish, potato,cucumbers, and lettuce resulting in a bit of an overgrown but happy garden. Avery has greatly enjoyed watching the seeds grow into plants and food.

Fathers day we went to Worlds of fun and Oceands of Fun. Boy was it hot.

Avery enjoys playing in the backyard greatly. Since I have been home we spend at least two hours everyday out back.

Avery stands before the Lavender Fridge before we made our trip to Home Depot to get a new one. The Amana has been with me for 16 years and had served us well. The exterior long ago gave way to rust-which explains the paint job-but when we woke up Saturday and the freezer was like a fridge and the fridge was like a cabinet we knew it was time. The new fridge is a lovely Matag in a beautiful white that matchs the stove. Matching appliances now how did that happen.

Avery turns Three


Avery had a great birthday. She celebrated at the land of birthday glee, CHUCKIE CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!We ate pizza, played games, and Chuckie even brought a cake out. Aunt Sherrie dropped in for a bit and joined us. Avery had a glorius day and her folks had a pretty great time to.

A beautiful time to play outside

Avery has been taking full advantage of the gorgeous weather we have been so lucky to experience as of late.

Things are well here at the Keown Ranch

Michael is now working in the News Department at KMZU the Farm here is Carrollton. He enjoys his new shift 11-6 much more then his previous shift of 5:30- 2 with the commute to Chillicothe. He is enjoying his new position, new employer, and the close proximity to home

For the present time I am staying home with Avery-------------further attempting potty-training and having some fun.
