5-day weekend = trip!


When you've got Daddy home for a five-day 'weekend'....you've got to make travel plans!  We headed to Grandma and Grandpa's house to have a last visit with the train display (and also visit our family ;) )






Uncle Mark and JungMin showered Peter with belated birthday presents.  Here he is with most of them: a Phillies hat, a new sweatshirt, and a guitar!


Uncle Mark was rocking out while Peter was dancing to the tune.


After dinner one night, there was a double rainbow! We went outside to check it out - can you see both in the photo?



Sunday cuties....I couldn't resist attempting to get a picture of these red-white-and-blue kiddos....turns out pretty good! (Notice the hat, still on Peter's head!!)


Sunday afternoon we set up the sprinkler for the kids to play in! They had a lot of fun.



Peter would wake up the morning asking if it was time for trains, and he got to run them a lot over four days!!


Back at home and hosted a picnic on the 4th - Peter traded his hat for his guitar....it doesn't sound as loud when it's outside ;)



More red-white-and-blue cuties!

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 :)

Mexico 2025 ;)

 After a year of not blogging, I'm making this post as an attempt to restart :)  We went on a family vacation back in February that was wonderful. It was a good time of year to travel and the picture above is from the first day. We got to the resort at lunchtime, threw on the swimsuits, and then had a dinner reservation at 6! So it was a jam-packed day but everyone was thrilled! We enjoyed time at the pool, the kids grew more confident in speaking Spanish and ordering drinks, and each night was a great dinner & ice cream at the little coffee shop :) Everyone has said they would go back :)  Maybe some day!
