August Fun

 

At the beginning of August, we joined up with my dad's side of the family in Poconos and spent the weekend visiting. We had almost perfect weather this year - so nice!! We had campfires, played outside, took a hike, and felt a nice breeze while sitting on the porch. Very good weekend :)



When we got back, we visited our local Farm Show. We saw tons of animals, crafts, and at the end of the day watched the tractor pull. It was an exciting day for the kids, for sure. 





Soon after, it was Chloe's birthday! Kevin's dad came for the weekend and Chloe picked to go to Phipps for her birthday. 







We had family come on Sunday afternoon and had a nice time visiting. Chloe got to open many nice presents and blow out all 14 candles on her cake!

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!
