Just Hanging Out

ah, the lazy days of summer.....

Actually, these pictures were taken around 10:00 in the morning, after feeding April, showering, breakfast, folding and putting away laundry, putting April down for a nap, Chloe's breakfast, changing into 'real' clothes, more laundry, unloading the dishwasher, and feeding April again.....

So maybe not too lazy, but still wonderful :)

Chloe was hard at work on a drawing....in between stares across the street to the roofers working at our neighbors house. April was happy in her bouncy seat watching the world go by.


Simple joys:



I asked Chloe to show me her drawing:

and then I asked if I could take a picture :) Here is her masterpiece:

Looks like a great day so far! Isn't it amazing what a mom gets done by mid-morning?! I have been meaning to comment on your blog for several posts now, but my thoughts fit equally well for this one -- both girls are beautiful and I am excited to see you guys in a few weeks! :)

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!

Thanksgiving Turkey

My brother-in-law raises turkeys, and we had one on Thanksgiving this year! It was a 31 pound turkey and took up a lot of space in my refrigerator for a few days before the holiday. I started the cooking process early so it was done by lunchtime.  Here is the turkey, barely fitting into my oven!  "the farmer and the chef" :)

Crazy May

 As is typical with three active kids, we've had a busy last few weeks! Photos coming soon of the dance recital, Peter's birthday party, school activities and more :)  Here is our May started: No power for 5 days! A wind-storm went through our area and several power lines were knocked over. We did have school for 3 days. The weather was perfectly sunny and 70 degrees, so it wasn't too bad :)
