Trick-or-treat!

Aunt Laura and Aunt Michelle picked out a bumblebee costume for Chloe last Halloween....Here she is in 2009:

and in 2010, it still fits! So, she was a bumblebee again this year, but I don't think she minded!


After church and an afternoon nap, we stopped at Mommom Ritters with our bumblebee before the trick-or-treating started.

We passed out candy to all of 12 kids, but that gave Michelle and me a chance to walk Chloe over to the neighbors. She returns.....with some candy!!

My parents and Michelle showed up with these glasses on, and we thought it would be fun to see what Chloe thought of wearing them. What a hoot!


Our neighbors stopped over with their kids and little C, the lady-bug, made a 'bee'-line to my dad! She walked right over like she'd known him her whole life! :)
Of course, Chloe wanted to sit on his knee too....so she headed his way....

And then old-brother M, dressed in a great spider costume, decided he'd help us get a group shot and walked over too. So here's Grandpa B with all the kids! :)

We had a fun Halloween!

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!
