11th Annual

11th Annual could also be called "2nd try at Camping in July and it was awful weather again" :)  It was hot and muggy, but then 6 hours of rain on Saturday made us almost go crazy! Thank goodness we were close to my sister's -- we went by to her house to "dry out" for two hours before going back to our very wet campsites!

Despite the weather issues, we had a great time as always.  These girls (and Peter) look forward to camping together and have the best time.  It keeps getting easier and Heather and I both said it would be the best next year -- no one will be 2! :)

this is the best I got of the "littles" :)


Peter loved the Deterding's scooter.  Loved.

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!

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 :)

Happy 4th Birthday Chloe!

You are growing into a compassionate, cheerful, young lady! We love you Chloe and are looking forward to this year with you!! 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013
