If you ever want to learn at least 10 new creative techniques for bowling that have never been thought of before - you go bowling with a bunch of Kindergardeners. This was the last field trip of Lauren's school year.
Rylee's gymnastics recital went well. She is so shy when she is around people she doesn't know. A room full of strange adults watching carefully doesn't make the performance any easier. But she can do an Excellent cartwheel, and a handstand into a back-bend.
Lauren has this daredevil streak inside that comes out occasionally. It's fun to watch because I know exactly where she gets it from. . . . Janna. I never did anything like this.
Rylee and I had a preschool field trip and went fishing together. This is at the local fish hatchery, fishing is really not a sport here. You literally put your bare hook in the water and can pull out the fish. So we capitalized on this and Rylee landed 4 whoppers that day. The shortest one was 11". Of course, I didn't want to fish in the kiddie pond with all the other pre-schoolers so we went to the pond with all the "big fish." Somehow, I'm the only one that eats them though.
I coudn't resist. It's been a while since Darth has made it onto my blog page. This picture makes me laugh every time I look at it. Please tell me if you can figure out the context here.
The large driveway is going to have to do until we get grass in. Our yard consists of wicked hard clay and rocks right now. Progress towards having grass is slow.
This is my bathtub. Funny enough, I've never used it though. The girls seem to enjoy it several times a week.
Matt & Cameron Berghout came over IN THE RAIN to help me move some large rocks into place in the front yard. How do you move a 500lb rock 2-3/8 inches to the right?
Poncho Villa came to help me lay sprinkler pipe - and guess what - it rained again. Refusing to be beaten by the rain Adam and I donned some rain coats but gave up when we stood 6" higher each and could no longer lift our 50lb shoes. The best part: Adam didn't have any clothes on under the poncho.
