Here are the rest of my pictures from January. The big project in January was to replace the roof of our church, Reefton Baptist. The building is an old A-frame Scout hall. The first picture here was the day they trimmed trees away from the building and took part of a wall off, and started taking the top off the chimney.
The next Saturday, more people went. They took off the old roof and replaced it, and a couple of people spent the whole day jackhammering and sawing the chimney to finish taking it down below the level of the roof. They had the building water-tight by late that night.
Little Miss wanted a picture of my harvest one morning.
One day, Mom and I took the three youngest on a walk to the bridge. We located all three geocaches that are around the bridge–what fun!
Esther was in Timaru for a couple of weeks in January, and one evening she sent me a picture of the sunset. I returned the favor–ours was more brilliant!
The budgies are tamer all the time. Mr. Imagination enjoys them.
So do the girls!
When I went to the greenhouse one day to work, I found two cats enjoying the dry warmth in there!
A friend of ours bought a berry farm last year. He allowed us to come in and pick crops that would be going to waste. These were blueberry bushes in among tayberries. We came home with enough blueberries to last us most of the year!
Picking peas and beans is very enjoyable–see all the colors!
