Family, Fun and Fried Chicken

Lyndsey, Emily and Sutton, a few of my Texas cousins were visiting last week.  We had a big old Hoosier feast at the farm on Friday complete with Grandma Esta-style fried chicken, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes and gravy, spinach salad and persimmon pudding. 
 
Between Evangeline, Cale and Sutton there was some serious cuteness going on.  Mom patted Cale's bottom until he fell asleep for the worlds longest nap, Evangeline just trotted around helping out with various things, and Sutton was all over the place on his new found walking legs.  
 
The day lilies have completely taken over the landscape and the view from Zach and Candice's porch is simply perfection.  
 
Kyle had to work and couldn't be with us this day, but happy belated Father's Day to all the Dads in my life. 
 
"Old man take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you......"
 
Evangeline sure does love this little dude.....she's not too sure about the crying and fussing though.....
 
Finally, we got to go to our first band concert of the year.  With the rain and our travels we've missed several.  We plan to attend as many as we can.  It's a perfect way to end a summer night. 

The lightning bugs have been absolutely incredible this year.  I've been up many a night during the wee hours and have see their splendor down in our woods.  I don't see how anyone could look upon the perfection of nature and deny a divine Creator.  It's all a miracle.
