Fishing at the cabin

5.25.14

We went to the cabin with grandma Deb while daddy was still busy planting. After we got the lawn mowed the girls wanted to go fishing. We had a great weekend, got a few projects done, transplanted a ton of plants that grandma brought up and even had a fire. Only thing missing was dad!

The girls did great fishing off the dock. They were biting like crazy!

Delicious and messy!

 Ashlyn fell asleep on the screened-in deck... 

its hard work playing all day at the cabin!

Ashlyn Gets Her Ears Pierced!

5.14.14
Ashlyn has been asking to get her ears pierced for over a year.  I finally surprised her and told her we were going to get her ears pierced... she was so excited!!!
She did awesome, didn't cry even though they had to try twice with each ear. (They said that the pack of earrings that come in the guns must have been defective... poor kid!) I'm so proud of her. She has been reminding me every morning and every night to clean them.  She looks so grown up now!



Kaelyn earned a quarter by waiting patiently and being quiet.   She also used that time to try on a few things!  Claire sat quietly in the stroller and was a good girl as usual :)

Busy day!

5.18.14

We had a busy day looking for mushrooms.  

The girls enjoyed picking flowers for me :)

Happy Claire!  Best baby ever :)

In the woods down at Riverland

When we got back home, we found a nest of baby bunnies in our patio flower pots. We let them have one more week in there before we planted our flowers.

We also got to chase these guys around giving rides, bringing parts, food,

and whatever else they needed :)

Kaelyn put on a fairy rock concert that night for us!
