Simple Pleasures

This week we had an opportunity present itself causing some big decisions needing to be made for the future of the Stannix family. We stopped over in Red Deer and then decided to stay over at the acreage for the night. The warm summer night welcomed time with family and picking fresh raspberries from my Mum's raspberry patch. We picked until the sun went down last night. Just picking, and thinking, and picking, and eating the odd plump berry. It was so peaceful, just the type of atmosphere we needed to make a big decision. As the sun set over the trees, we had finally come to a conclusion together, with advice from parents, and lots of raspberry picking.

My beautiful Mum is so dedicated to her little patch of heaven. I admire her so much!

Camilla did some picking and eating of her own today! 

 Her and Grampa quickly became best friends, filling their bellies with plump red berries.

Mr. Stannix enjoyed himself and got right into it, literally!

So grateful for the simple things in life.
