Old Town Ellicott City

 Ellicott City has cobblestone streets and some pretty interesting antique stores!





 This marker shows when different floods occurred over the years and how high they reached.

A favorite book of our family!

Fourth of July

 Does this look familiar to some of you? It looks very much like some of our Fourth of July Ward Picnics.
 These people go all out!

 I am happy to see that my son notices flowers and even takes pictures of them :).

 Elder Farr on his "preparation" day (for those of you who don't know what that is, it is a day to do laundry, write letters, clean the apartment, etc.)
 Wonderful spider reflection!
 Planning for the week (Elder Farr's apartment has two companionships); the visual aid below represents "putting on the whole armor of God"
