The weather this week-end was very.....fall like. We like July days and don't like being robbed of them. It was a good week-end to build a mini-retaining wall in front of the house. This will help prevent our bushes/dirt from rolling down the hill. We should be getting close to getting some grass as well!

The sun finally came out!! :)
Saturday we went to the Farmer's Market....
Missouri peaches.......who knew they grew peaches in Missouri??? Tasty peaches even!
And one of the most beautiful things about living in Iowa........sweet corn at the end of July! mmmm mmmmmmmm.
Nate tried his hands at ribs.....we both decided they weren't bad but we'd prefer someone else to cook them for us! :P
Ike enjoyed a nice bone in the sunshine. He was a big fan of helping clean the corn and eating the greenery.
After a busy Sunday of playing with his new toy cat, rolling in the yard, cooking, a walk, and a bath............Ike is ready to call it a week-end!
