Beautiful Weather

This past week we had beautiful weather. This led to all sorts of activities, of which below is a small overview.


Playing in the sandbox.

The perennial beds coming up nicely.



Laundry hanging on the line. I recently acquired a second line as one was not enough for our family's needs. Now I don't have to run my dryer or drag my clunky drying rack outside :)

My Dad doing some tilling in our garden. Seeing as how they live nearby now, they would like to use some of our garden. Since ours is so big, we easily have enough to share.

Lady is getting so much bigger but still so much fun.

Freddy the Frog getting some 'tender loving' care from Silas and Bethany.

Bethany's sand castle.

Silas looking like a dork. He loves to wear the ear phones on top of his bike helmet. I don't think it's helping his listening skills at all. He constantly says, "Pardon me?" very quickly when he doesn't hear you correctly. We thought we had solved one problem when he was always saying, "What?" If he'd only take off the ear phones, we might solve the other problem of him actually hearing us. (Maybe it's his sisters that are driving him nuts :)
