The Sillies

Worker Bee

A friend recently asked about the 52 projects.  I laughed.  Then I got to thinking – I don’t really know how many projects we’ve completed, but I can say that we’ve been busy knocking things off the list, and really, that’s what I was hoping for in setting the goal of a project a week this year.  We’ve plastered, sanded, and painted, painted, painted.

 

One of our more recent projects was upgrading & expanding our raised bed gardens.  Kole built three new garden beds – and to get them in place there was a lot of digging, hauling and sod transplanting.  Thank goodness we’ve got a little helper.

She quickly ditched the pink, plastic Little Tikes shovel in favor of something a little more sturdy, and she helped off and on for the entire afternoon.

FLASHBACK: Mothers Day

We broke tradition and headed to the Botanical Garden for Mother’s Day this year.  Maggie enjoyed the children’s garden, Ezra liked being outside all morning, and Kole and I used the gardens to identify some of the plants at our house.

First Swim of the Season

We broke out the pool last weekend.  We assumed the sun would warm the water while the kids napped…

 

Ahem… apparently it didn’t get that warm.   They got used to it eventually.

Busy Bee

Game night.  She is hilarious with the Brain Quest questions.  She’s got them half memorized, so it’s interesting to hear her take on each question and answer.

All before 9 am
