Snippets from our lives

We spent quite a few Monday evenings helping Jim and Marilyn get their yard weeded and ready for the summer. We have quite the yard crew now, but I only got pictures of the youngest:

The little man:

Sunday walk with my boys and Anni at the nature park:

I ended up ordering lots of books for the kids during Corona while the libraries were all closed and all of our books were buried somewhere in storage...it was fun seeing this sight so often usually with all three of them in the same room:

Making good use of sheets and a windy day:

Abram cooked up quite the lunch:

First Sunday visits after Corona- they were really distancing themselves:

Maddie and Abby feeding Rosie:

Anni teaching Caden ballet moves one morning:

Maddie and Abby hiking R Mountain after dark:

Abram and Anni have lots of picnics because Abram is awesome:

Memorial Day barbecue at the Andersons:

Caden’s been teaching himself to play guitar:

This yard has a lot of entertaining dandelions gone to seed:

A new noxious weed that we have been battling:

Anni jumped down the window well one day while I was weeding:

Anni wondered if she “could borrow Maddie’s shorts”:

Pace and his friend Charlotte at ballroom dance pictures. He has been enjoying this activity and it is so cute to watch! These are their costumes for the Beauty and the Beast dance:

Pace REALLY likes this costume. My friend Susan asked Pace if he felt like a real prince when he wore it  and he gave her a strange look and then said, “I feel like the BEAST “😂 No wonder it’s so cool.

Pace looks a lot like his Uncle Eli:

My gardening buddy:

This place has a lot of piles of old materials in the back barns and the boys have been having a hay-day building forts and exploring. Nolan built this one and they can’t wait to sleep in it:

Head wreath made by Caden:

Maddie and Caren on a hike at Cress Creek:

I thought this sight was really humorous one morning when I got the girls up early for family scripture study 😂 Haha- they’re good sports.

Always music going in this house and I love it! Someone is either playing the piano, guitar or violin or they’re all singing together:

Also- Caden has been growing his hair out and has had several people ask him if he is “mixed”.
