Early May


After reading Farmer Boy, the boys got to make doughnuts just like they did in the book.  They loved this activity.  They are also enjoying the Little House series.  We've read Farmer Boy and Little House in the Big Woods and are now moving on to Little House on the Prairie.





I bought these shoes for Alex in late September and there was snow on the ground from December until March.  They are so hard on shoes!

I've never onlined shopped for shoes before but I'm glad it worked out.


Visiting Gigi through the window at the home.


So many pictures of Toby! But he's So Cute!






The kids have been making little Fairy Houses all over the yard.


Leave it to a boy.


Hours of making paper weapons.  I like to call this one Covid Ninja.


The opening to Sean's store is getting closer.  We got to tour through the empty store.  It was the kid's first outing in 8 weeks and it was very exciting for them!


Next time I dye Mik's hair, I'll have to remember to wear gloves.



We've been enjoying the new fire pit.





Kids set up a tent and had their first sleep over in the yard.


My birthday dinner was so yummy!  Aiden cooked the hamburgers and Caileigh made the spinach salad.  This was the nicest birthday I've had.  We all worked in the yard all day and then we had a barbecue dinner and spent time at the fire pit.  During dinner, a few members of the pipeband showed up and played a few tunes including Happy Birthday.  It was so nice!









Mother's Day Covid style.


Caileigh doesn't even wait for the pool to fill:)



Mik's been enjoying using her 3-D printer.


Mikayla set up a stand.  This girl is always looking for ways to make money.




Jordan has taught himself to cross stitch and is enjoying it.



There continues to be much baking.



Some creative game they were playing.


Talking to their cousin in Japan.
