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!

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 :)
