Spring happenings

Wow, where has the time gone? It was spring, now it's summer vacation. I've blogged next to nothing, took a million pictures, posted some of them on Facebook, but have so many more to share. Unfortunately, due to my lack of patience, Blogger's "problems" loading my pictures, and fat fingers on a laptop, there are not as many pictures as I had hoped to share. Sigh. Oh, well, here are some photos showing what has been going on in and around our house and family. Enjoy the pictures.

DISCLAIMER:
(Lori, I am totally copying you on this, and I want to thank you for YOUR inspiration. You get all the credit for this update!!!)

This spring was a:

First place time of 13.22 seconds in the 90m for Payton in the city track meet taking,

Lindsay triple jump leaping,

Blue ribbon showing,

12th birthday celebrating,

Kiss stealing,

Air soft war preparing,

Baby chick feeding,

Race for the cure walking,

New coop making,

Griffey exploring,

Table rock hiking,

Payton, Seth, and Ben posing,

New baby Brock holding,

Cemetary visiting,

Kourtni 9th grade photo student award winning,

6th grade tie-dye graduating!

Farewell to Freshman Dance attending,

Crappie fish catching,

Kind of spring.

Wow. Sort of summarizes everything up. Until next time...

Amy - are you going to read this? Not sure, but YES, we HAVE 5 GIRLS! (future egg layers) They are in a coop in our backyard - in the waaaay back. Hopefully they'll give us some nice organic eggs in a couple of months. You should definitely get some! Your kids would LOVE it! Come see them anytime you want...

Have fun with the chickens!!

I love the pics! Your girls are getting so grown up! It always blows my mind where does the time go? Give the kids a big kiss for me! p.s. every day Bryton still says "mom can I fly to Paytons house somtime to see him?" We might have to make that dream come true someday!!:)
