Nothing. We have no major projects going on here this summer, and I think we’re all looking forward to a slower summer. Last year this time we were tearing out the bushes in front to make way for the addition – so things were just about ready to get really busy.
Riding bikes is the the latest fad around here. Jacob and Jesse repaired the broken ones for the kids and whole afternoons are spent riding around the farm.
Jewel lost another tooth!!
Reading outside one evening.
Looking at all the apple buds.
Dad’s birthday was the 29th (Monday). Jacob started Drivers Ed on Monday also, so for the next 4 weeks that is how he will be spending his evenings 4 days a week. Wednesday he got his permit and he already drove a little bit also.
Guess why Jesse’s covering Josh’s mouth?!
A new bolt bin. Just what he wanted, or rather, just what Jesse wanted but needed a good reason to get. Also, it’s Dad’s 44th birthday. Kind of neat.
Breakfast and guitar practice outside.
Fiddle practice.
These next few pictures were taken by Jewel. Tulips that were planted years ago - every spring a few come up.
Apparently we need to record the dandelion growing in the crack in the sidewalk by the garage man door (which no longer exists either).
Spanky the mother cat.
Ben took this shot of the cherry tree loaded with blossoms [also known as a popcorn tree for awhile. ~editor]
Shooting the potato gun.
Anyone see the potato in this picture? (Actually the potato blasted into several pieces. The smaller chunks are really hard to see without magnifying the picture but the larger one is visible.)
