It appears I haven't updated since March... my apologies.  So this post is random stuff from that month. The girls had much longer hair... and Kestrel received a terrific kid award from school.   Snack time with Addie Terrific Kid Sister love...for a quick second.

We sponsored Sean while he was here at the Naval Academy Prep School.  We had fun having him to the house for lunch and the girls found lots of ways to keep him busy...jumping on the trampoline, building tents, and playing frisbee.  Mark equally had fun taking him to the goat farm and the duck pond.  We all had exciting times when we went for nature walks and trips to the beach.  He's from Iowa so lots of ocean related activities were brand new for him. He's off the Naval Academy next year! Being useful doing "tall chores" Hanging out in Kestrel's new tent Add caption Hey, don't blink!

I was looking at the girls' eyes the other day and it seemed to me they were practically the same color...what do you think??

LOVE THIS QUILT!!! Pattern is Swoon by Camille Roskelley Fabrics are some batiks I've found.  Hope you all love it too!

A major wobbler showed up during our snow vacation.  Laurel was having a fun time showing everyone the evidence.

We had a significant snow storm (some called it a blizzard) in February. After the work of this snow, we headed to Pennsylvania to play in the snow with the Millers and Aabys.

She came to us without much planning, but without her, many memories would be absent of her charm and smile. We let her move on yesterday because her body had given out.  May her spirit catch all the birds she can find!! Over the years.... Ruby was visiting for the summer. After her run-in with a golf cart. Pheasant hunting... Appletini time Kestrel 2 days old Hanging out with her new baby Back seat is getting crowded Kisses Squirrel Hanging out with friends ......Chester, Yvonne and Steve Hugs!!!
