August fires

 My garden is putting out tons of goodies for us every day!

Fire season has officially started.  The last 2 years we got lucky with minimal fires.  This year we're not so lucky.  I took the below pictures of a fire that burned 200 acres right behind our development.  We saw planes and helicopters flying over our house carrying water for the fire all day long.  Several acres on the air force base to the East of us burned too.  Scary stuff!  Only 2 structures were lost though.  You can see where the fire came right up and around houses.  The fire fighters did an amazing job!  Everything is burned around these houses but the houses are fine.  We have been stuck indoors for part of September due to the hazardous air quality since our entire west coast- Washington, Oregon and California are on fire and the smoke is being funneled into our area.

Connor's best friend, Mason Moss came over for a visit.  They played Lego's and watched a movie on the big screen.  We haven't seen him all summer and really the only friend Connor has played with all summer is Raheem (whose only at his dad's house on the weekends).
