Catch Up

We've had an exciting few weeks here...and I have to catch up on some events!

Chloe started going to preschool two mornings a week.  She loves it so far...and it's been nice to have some Mommy-April time too!




After our first week of school, we had friends come for the weekend! We've known the Jones' since college and it was fun to see them :)  On Saturday we went to a local park...and took the bikes...





Then, Saturday evening the Jones' got to meet Miss Hazel - and she participated in dress-up with the big girls!

We toasted marshmallows after dinner...

and attempted a kids picture right before they left on Sunday morning!! This one looks pretty good because I cropped out the blurry feet :)

After church, we went to my parents for a cookout...because, Connor was in town!!

Good thing it warmed up a little bit...ice cream is best eaten outside ;)

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 :)
