At the beginning of the year I realized that I hadn't been having the kids do book reports this year and Michael kept wanting to make cookies. I realized that I hadn't had the kids make many treats so I decided that I would make a rule that they could make a desert for each book they read...I later rethought this because they can read a lot of books! This is what Alden made for reading all of the Lord of the Ring series. The cookies had chocolate rings on them.
This was a cool random craft Benson did. It's hard to see but he wanted to make a doll house similar to Roslyn's. I was amazed at all of the little rooms and the little furniture things that he put in it. In this picture, he was just finishing up painting it.
My little princess. One of the preschool kids accidentally left this crown, since it was Christmas break, we ended up having it for a while. Maebryn and Roslyn were often found wearing it.
Fixing the hole in the ceiling. When the electrician came to do the pool, I was standing where this picture was taken and saw a big boot coming out of the ceiling and said, "That's not good". Luckily they had everything fixed really nice and you would never know that it ever happened.
Calvin's dessert for finishing all of the Harry Potter books. He made a cookie..originally had tried to get them to look like chocolate frogs but then changed it to be something else because the frogs weren't working out.
This little girl is really big into shoes lately. Fun to see her all dolled up. She will ask for her shoes and bow on most mornings...even though they don't always last too long before one or the other comes off.
One morning these two were matching so I took their picture together. It was fun to see how they each reacted to me taking their picture and saying to look at me. Evan was about to jump and Roslyn did well what you see in the picture. :)
Alden's newest game. He's a big fan of this one mostly because he can play it with even the little kids and they love it!
Pool Progress!
Using the sewing machine for the first time.
Feeding the bees! Any day that it's warm we will often see the bees out looking for food, so as I was getting some sugar water ready for them the kids and I put some on our hands and sat watching the bees come and drink it up.
Cute girls
Our neighbor gave us a bunch of cute fun girl clothes. These two have had a fun time picking which outfit they want to wear.
This was a Saturday that it warmed up enough that I almost didn't want to go inside so we decided to eat outside.
