The Garden Center

Jannette, Jackie and I all signed up for the free classes at The Garden Center. Jackie didn’t make it since she was in Texas. The first class was all about Ph and acids. It was very interesting and fun to do.

They each had a chance to use household chemicals to see how much acid was in each of them. They were all so cute. The only probably was that it was super hot. Zoe really didn’t want to do it so she brought her fish home.

They each got to be scientist for a minute and turned clear water pink with a clear liquid and then back to clear. It was kind of cool!!

The kids have always wanted to play in the houses and around the gardens and today they did.

They loved this sprinkler system they could turn on and off. They all ran in the sprinklers-it was nice since it was so hot!

Train Conductor

I love it when my kids pretend play. Esher came upstairs today to show me his costume for their game. He still just loves trains.

                 I think my boy is so super handsome!!!

Sebastian looks like those Mc Donald stuffed animals with the giant noses they were giving away a little while back.

TENNIS

I love that we have tennis courts about 5 minutes from the house. My Love had to see what the kids have all learned. It was so fun watching them all chase the balls everywhere!

Sunday Dinner

Grandma and Grandpa came over for some Indian food. I’m so glad the weather is getting warmer so we can eat outside. These are the old ugly chairs we had that I restrained. They look so much better!!!

Sunday Dinner 009

As the evening went on these cool clouds started coming our way. This one looks like a spaceship getting ready to land. Soon after this the lightning started.

The Recital

Ash, Madi, and Aubree all had their recital today-They were AMAZING!!

I really hope one day our kids can start piano lessons. We had to take our piano back because one of the keys was broken, so we might need to wait until Costco has another one. The ones we have found that were kind of like the Costco one are hundreds more. I have talked to people that are incredible pianist that didn’t start until they were 10, so it’s not too late yet.

After the recital we all went to Wingers for lunch. I really don’t like the place but everyone else does so we went. I do like one thing-their Ranch Burger. It was still good.

New Scooters For Everyone

Paris has wanted a Razor forever, so that was her birthday gift from us. But Tristan and Esher were also in need of new scooters. We bought them a cheaper brand ($20) so they could also have one. So we all went down the river trail to test them out.

A Day on the River Trail 004

I was so surprised at how many people were fishing. The kids are dying to go fishing this summer, hopefully we can.

 A Day on the River Trail 013 

We saw this cute family of ducks. Can you imagine having 14 kids??? Tristan and Esher swear its the same mommy duck that lived under our bushes this spring-so cute!!!

A Day on the River Trail 001

Esher did great one way but was exhausted on the way back. He tried running at first then, but we kept falling behind the group so, we came up with this. He loved it!!!

I just love living so close to the River Trail!!!!
