Adding to the Ranks

The season for goofing off is in full swing around here. The school year is a distant memory and next year's studies too far away to think much about. Ahh, free time, we have been soaking it up!










Since we don't ever seem to have enough kids around here, we are going to have another. Our estimated due date is Christmas Day. Maybe after the new baby is born I will finally have something to do. Ha!

Silver Dollar City

A few cute pics from our trip to Silver Dollar City last weekend:

There is a lot of hard work going on around here:

Maya is growing cantaloupe:

Mark Jr. is growing pole beans:

The peonies are about to burst open:

The kids have established a secret hideaway:

I know it's spring because it is sidewalk chalk time!

The flowers are blooming away:

The robins have moved in:

We Have Been Busy!

We have been very very busy!
We have been on walks that turn into treasure hunts:

...and often our treasure hunts turn into play-at-the-park time:




We have been attending to many science experiments, including growing a mold garden:

Daddy helped the kids dissect a rainbow trout:



We grew our very own stalactite:

And of course, we've been enjoying the baby:
We hope you have been enjoying a very busy spring, too!
