chicks

in a few weeks they can roam freely in the backyard

and in six months they will be laying eggs ^.^

i spy...

...with my little eye...

blue fingernails

a purple door

a pink camera

marc's cracked iphone

mug shots :D

awesomeness :)

looking at old pics

...and wondering why i stopped blogging...

i never posted about Snow's boat and how much she loved it

she took it to the pool

the bay

the gulf

i never talked about Maku's garden

where he rode his giant tree

and talked to his shadow

i never mentioned our mustache

and all the fun it brought to our home.
the boat is now wrecked, the tree chopped down, and the mustache destroyed
but what the heck, we are still here. :)

showing a little joy...

...in the parking lot...

...cuz we got the tin can Snow needed for her school project. ^.^

remnants of one good weekend

after another

after another

a hanging bridge

inspired by the Bunlap tribe of Vanuatu.

some kind of pinocchio

Yesterday was one of those days when it seemed like the whole day was spent driving the children around town. Almost always one of them manages to make the ride a little exciting.
"Mom! What am I going to do?!? Oh no, I am going to be like this forever."
I glanced at the rearview mirror.
"Okay, calm down. I'll get it unstuck as soon as we get off the car. But I have to take a picture first."

a sunny autumn day

where a quick dip in freezing water leads to a game of barefoot tennis

and a tennis match leads to fetching balls over fences

and fetching leads to this:

A FENCE RACE!!!

GO! GO! GO!

bowls of soup

...for sore little throats and runny little noses.

there was also a mama bowl without the noodles.

bits of joy

one of the only two recipients of the Einstein award

having a container handy to house an inchworm

green socks for St. Patrick's Day

what's that b

Whenever I take my camera out, the children race to take a turn. They want to take photos and they want them posted here.
Snow had an idea the other day: The letter 'B' challenge.

My entry: Buster, our jewelled spider.

Snow's entry: Bucket.

Maku: Berries

Jin: Brothers

and another B: Back to homework. ^.^
