Brave old soul

May I point out that my daughter is not at all content with just sitting in the tube. No - she needs to do some stunts. First
standing, then arms out, arms tucked in, one leg out.... She thinks outside the box and I love her for it.

Memorial Day Weekend

We spent Friday out on Trinity Lake - hardly anyone there! Another score for Homeschoolers!!! These kids are so lucky. It's really
amazing on a boat - you have no other responsibilities. You can't do anything but relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. So far we have seen bald eagles soaring alongside us and deer sleeping my the shore. And the whole family has fun. What more could I ask for right now?

SUMMERTIME AND THE WEATHER IS SWEET

We are going to have the best summer ever! Thanks to everyone who helped us create this wonderful life we are living. We are so lucky and blessed to know people like you.

Happy Mothers Day!!

We spent Mother's Day at our local Zoo. The kids loved brushing all the goats and sheep - funny since I can't get them to do it at home!!
Can y'all see my little guys outfit here - his own personal style, a
little of everything.

California spring

Here's some California sunshine for everyone. Just seeing these makes
me warm.

Fairy Fun

Thanks to everyone who attended my daughter's tea-party. We had fun frolicking with you!

Life on a farm....

Life on a farm should be like this everyday. The kids love looking for eggs...some days we only find one, but somedays we find a whole basket. I'm always looking for new things to do with all those eggs. 

Any suggestions?

Easter egg hunt

Big sis made sure that little brother was able to hear all the rules for the local easter egg hunt. He was feeling shy, and didn't know what to expect. She comforted him until the search began. Then, like all good big sisters, she abandoned him to find the candy!
But really we had a lot of fun (thanks- local 4-H !!) those eggs were well hidden, and those mountain kids of mine have eagle eyes.
