Playtime fun and milkshakes...

 Ollie and Ck playing "house" in the closet. (yes they are sitting next to dirty clothes and don't seem to mind at all. :)

 We had milkshakes with our supper the other night and Ollie was cracking me up trying to drink out of this curly straw to be like the big kids. Look how hard he had to try with those little cheeks squeezed all the way in!

 Working on the "house and playground" ALL day! They started on this first thing in the morning and worked on it on and off all day.  Their house with multilevel with the basement under the table with a plaroom. They even have a "firepit" outside their house where they roasted marshmellows. (complete with bowling pins as logs, bats as sticks and wristbands as marshmellows) 

                                                Roasting their marshmellows...

 Still working..They had to do a LOT of painting and hammering....

Ollie playing in the "playroom" in the "basement" while they worked!  :)

School Project

For Earth Day week, Levi's project was to make some type of transportation out of recycleable materials.  He really waned to make a jeep, so thanks to the strange shape of Costco milk jugs, he did it! He does seem to be doing lots of fun stuff in school right now, but he is still really excited about summer break and counting down the days already!

Happy Birthday, Papa!

A Little Song for especially for Papa today! (Sorry, Ollie had already gone to bed or he would have happily sang too. He did practice with them earlier in the day!)

Pine Paradise!

Pine Paradise, the 60th birthday party and spring break fun....lots of fun to be had there in Kentucky! Dance parties with our disco ball and lights, even the fog machine, campfires, party games, party reenactments by the kids, 60 minute activities and treats, boating on the pond, the great playground, even some capture the flag for the cousins, and just good fun! The kids are ready to go back!!

Starting April...

Ollie is put in charge of the "library" Levi and Clara Kate were building for their town. :) He was happy to fill the job!

 We had a great visit from our friends Mel and Marty that we lived in Honduras with. The kids had a great time too! :)

 We all got to go out and see the town one day which was lots of fun!

                               Building the second garden bed!  All the kids were helping. 

                  Ollie was really starting to get into it!:) (it definitely reminded us of a little Levi!)

 Dying Easter Eggs to take with us to Pine Paradise so we could eat pretty eggs on Easter!

                                                            Ollie really liked his egg! :)
