Not kid free

How much fun to hear Ashleigh (5) read a book to her cousin Tristan
Rehanyn with Justin in forefront. He got in most of the picture

Rehanyn's big sister Adreyn (and Justin)

Having a good time (for the most part) Went to a new place, Going Bonkers, yesterday and to Cabela's today. Forgot camera yesterday and today the batteries were dead when we got there. Not good planning. You can imagine the fun yesterday by going to www.goingbonkers.com At Cabela's there was an aquarium, wild life (stuffed animals) , a safari, and Texas animals. Was really surprised by the number of animals and the landscaping. Adreyn felt bad that the animals had been shot and then stuffed. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/content/community/aboutus/retail/retail_stores/fortworth/fortworthphotogallery.html

Kids are asleep. They didn't wake up until 730 -745 this morning. Guess we were lucky

I am ready for AU but have to work three nights before leaving.

78 As a 1930s wife, I am Very Superior Take the test!

See, I haven't forgotten Adreyn. The girls came over while tristan went to check out a school
Rehanyn enjoyed until she got dizzy.

Then Rehanyn got stung by a bee on the front porch. That was an ordeal. Getting out the little kitchen and 'Go Fish' helped take care of the sting (along with a little baking soda. Uhoh. Dad said he used baking powder. Oh well. It took the sting out.

Play

Justin, Rehanyn, Ashleigh All kids like the sllide

I don't think Tristan is seeing a thing

Rehanyn is hid under here somewhere!!! Uncle Phil's swing is the greatest!
We took care of Tanya's kids tonight for a few hours. How lovely to have Aunt Tasha right behind us with the play ground Didn't get them in the trampoline. But they had fun there too. Sorry Adreyn is missed in all our pictures. We'll try to do better. Sorry Adreyn!!

My 'Naked Ladies have decided to be a little more decent. These flowers are so strange. The stalk suddenly comes popping out of the ground, then gets buds and finally and almost instantaneously become3s a full'blown blossom. They are unique.

A close up of the blossom. See the new ones yet to bloom in the middle? I have just three of these but who knows if more will 'pop' up.

Planted some new vining flowers by the archway today. The roses were'nt doing much so transferred them to behind the shed, facing Tasha's house. Maybe they will get more sun there and can bloom

I like lilacs and pussy willows. I have both growing but no flowers or new pussywillows. Hopefully next year I will get some. Lilacs can make the whole yard smell good.

Little daisies out in the woods. (For Tamra)

Old farm equipment spread about the acreage

Isn't this a beautiful place to spend a couple days to celebrate 42 years of marriage??

These are the friends we found around the grounds of our Bread and Breakfast

The woods around the acres were beautiful. On our walk we were shaded by these huge old trees.

This little (?) beagle was our leader on our walk through the grounds
