McKeown's get fuzzy!

Hello!

Today we got in touch with our Ecuadorian and central PA farm roots by visiting our local alpaca farm. It was so hot today but well worth the trip!

We learned that you always need to have alpacas in pairs, in case any of you were planning to try your luck as alpacas breeders. Alpacas are in the camel family, but they don't have the "water tank" like the African camel so they have to have cool shade. Most of them hung out in front of the fans :) In case you're wondering what inspired this random trip, knitting/yarn/crocheting did. Alpaca fur makes the best warm goodies, so if you're dying for some find the yarn and I will try to make it!

Lovely plush ladies:


Check out that hair cut!

After we drank about 10 glasses of water. Check out our artwork.
What a charmer.

Arts fest weekend!

So we went to a festival for arts and music, but realized all the pretty things for sale are for people with real jobs! :)

This month marks Ryan and I's one year "dating" anniversary. The real anniversary is for the wedding, but we thought we'd be nostalgic.

Little J turns 3 months on Monday! Here is a recent picture:




Here is the latest card from the cricut!




One more of Joce with Daddy! We tried out our local cracker barrel and got some free coffee in the process. We met a lady that we think has a southern accent only while working. Everyone loved Jocelyn. She loved the attention but was soon distracted by her hands.
