We met some friends at Blanford Nature Center.  Here the boys are enjoying their view bird-watching.  Or looking at how big things are with their "woggle-goggles," according to Jake.

Dirt sure tastes good!

Making eggs for dinner and this egg made me not want to eat...would this have been a twin chick??

4-22-12

It doesn't matter that the TV isn't on and nothing is happening.  Joel is LOVING the fact that he is getting to play big brother's video game!

A little hard to see in this picture, but Jake picked me some "flowers" and put them in water by himself.  He thought the would get more to drink if they were upside down.

Jeremy's dream for his runners!

4-18-12

Joel the "dog."  Every time the wind blows, he sticks his tongue out.  I think if we would allow it, he would love to stick his head out the car window like a dog.

Jeremy dragged us all to Home Depot - he's getting excited about starting his summer projects...we weren't so thrilled.

4-15-12

Jake learned how to ride his bike without training wheels - again.  He wasn't very confident on his new "big boy" bike.

4-14-12

Had brats for dinner, and only used 1 bun...an hour later I found Joel had gotten into them and eaten bites out of all the remaining buns!!!

4-12-12

Can you smell the lilacs?

4-11-12

I think it was good - but most of it is on my face!!

4-9-12

Can I go back outside now???  I fit it all in my mouth at least!

4-8-12

I guess the Easter bunny thought Jake was good this year!

4-7-12

A boy after my own heart - animal crackers dipped in frosting!

4-6-12

And we bought it!  Here is the mom-mobile being delivered!

4-5-12

It's Opening Day for MLB!!!  Yes, although I was stuck working for a million hours, Jeremy was nice enough to text me this picture of Rod and Mario, our Tiger's announcers.  How I've missed you!

4-4-12

Yep, it's track season.

4-3-12

Jeremy and the boys made Light Sabers today.  The best toy (and one of the cheapest!) in the house!

4-2-12

Don't judge - this is my boys' favorite place to watch TV.  It's a daily struggle to get them to back up so they don't "ruin their eyes."  Is that really just something our parents told us to back up?  Is there any truth to it?

Check out this pie!  Jeremy is spoiled by his Grandma Kate with another peach pie!

Jeremy decorated Easter eggs with the boys this year.  Can you believe that he took the time to drill holes and get the insides out, rather than just boiling them?  Yes, an impressive Dad!

3-30-12

Yep, it's still March and we have a rainbow!  A reminder of God's Promise!

3-27-12

A mini-van mom??  Are we crazy to be thinking about buying this van from a dealership in Minnesota?  Yes, both thoughts are crazy!

3-26-12

Too focused to notice the chalk on his face, pants, hands...everywhere!

3-25-12

Freshly cut grass, my Red Bud tree in bloom, blue skies, a perfect Sunday afternoon!

3-23-12

One of Joel's favorite parts of life - bath time!

3-21-12

Flowers are out!  Has spring really sprung in March?!?

3-19-12

Still lovin' this weather!  The neighborhood kids tried to make the world's longest hop-scotch game!

3-18-12

My green beauty that we bought the day Jake was born...Jeremy is taking pictures to try and sell it on Craig's List...guess we need more space with a 3rd child!
