Softball Practice

I actually remembered to bring the camera yesterday at softball practice! Beccah is having alot of fun, and she can't wait for her first game! Hopefully it will be this Saturday, unless the rain cancels it again.

Boys with Light Sabers

The sun was out for a bit today. So Aidan and Everett were having a Jedi adventure in the tall, tall grass. They were very cute for all of 10 minutes. Then they decided tv would be more fun and have been following me around begging and pleading and yelling at me to turn it on. How can Dora and Diego be more fun than pushing your brother off the bench with your light saber??
Rohnan very smartly keeps his distance and plays ball with Sasha.

Twins!

Even though they aren't twins, dressing them the same is still funny! Thanks mom! :) I'm sure they won't appreciate how cute they looked when they are odler, but oh well. I got to have my fun!
Rohnan loves to feed himself!

Rohnan

Rohnan was home alone with me. I was testing out a new lipstick. He is adorably cute and I couldn't help myself!

Our Garden

Aidan has been my motivation to plant our garden this year. He asks me every 5 seconds, "Can we plant the seeds yet??" He actually helped me weed the garden and did a good job planting seeds! And he told me I'm a great mama, so he gets the prize for nicest son today! :)
I forgot to take a 'before' picture, but here is the garden about 90% finished. We filled the wheel barrow to the top with weeds. Mint is a huge pain to pull up!!
And here is our freshly planted garden! I used seeds from a few years back, so here's hoping they grow! :) Notice the flowers already blooming on the far end? Beccah planted those last fall and they have been in bloom all winter. Weird little plants! But at least we have color in the garden.
Next we're going to plant herbs in our containers and try to remember to water them all summer. hehe

First Sunshine of the Year

We spent the day outside doing yard work. Well, I did. The kids found lots of interesting things to get into. Aidan and Beccah made bug habitats for their pet slugs and rolli-polli bugs.
Rohnan was very interested in the BBQ.
Sasha just enjoyed the company outside.

Volksmarch last year

I was looking through older photos for a scrap booking project Beccah will be doing for Girl Scouts and I found this one. I didn't know I had a recent picture of my entire family! And it's even in a nice setting. I really miss Everett's curls.
They might not all be looking at the camera, but boy does this capture their personalities! hehe
