Walking to work, using my prayer app, thinking about the discussion of the walkway to the waterfront from our architectural tour, and ended up praying for this sleeping man instead.  How upside down does your life go to sleeping in the middle of the sidewalk?

Wednesday is yoga night with the fam.  Except tonight it was a concert instead.  Pivot to a little walk to ice cream.

Volunteering in the church nursery today.  Which involves digging out and playing with every ball and every four wheeled vehicle.  And some random animal noises.  Except the hippo, what noise does a hippo make?

I finally have my teeth back!  Today the knobby parts got sanded off, so I can be an Invisalign-free person.  I still have about 3 1/2 months of heavy liner and retainer wearing, but getting closer to the end of this journey.

 Cherry season has lasted so long this year, from June into August.  This week is the last.  Blackberry gathering has been disappointing, but enjoying the berries as well for a lovely overlap.  So many childhood memories wrapped up in these two summer fruits.

Babysitting this smily little girl.  She's happy as long as she has something new to do every 10 minutes or so.  Grandma's toy box to the rescue!

Poppy's first trip to the aquarium, so blessed to be there for it!  She was enthralled.  So much movement and so many colors to watch!  BIg and small, she enjoyed them all!

Back on a roof, back watching for the Blue Angels.  But this time I was at home and was more successful.  They are so hard to photograph but so fun to watch.

Happy August!  Happy Seafair!
