Memorial Day Fishing

We went fishing. Dan knew of a farm pond. Boy was he right. I'm not sure Dan got to fish much.

Milo got one.



Danielle got one or two.




Mansel got several.




Look at Wayne's fish!



I'm smiling because I got four all together.




I'm not sure if Dan got to relax much - even now he is still out there cleaning them. Fish for supper tonight.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!

Little League

We have 3 players this year. Danielle is the newest. She is playing softball.



She loves it. Go Mariners!

Milo is a rookie - the Mets.





Mansel is in the major league this year. Rockies rule!




Soon it will all be over and we won't know what to do with all our time.

We are coming up upon birthday season at our house

Once upon a time I made a rule. I thought is was a good rule. Efficient.

Here is the rule. My kids will have "friends" parties for their birthdays when they are 6, 10, & 16. I have 5 kids, this rule ought to help keep a little sanity, and order. It will help us remember whose turn it is to have a party. Help me plan ahead and save up for it. Keep them from asking for one every year. That sort of thing.

Well - this year I have a child turning 6, 10, & 16. LOL. We are maxed out on birthday parties this year.

To make matters even more exciting... I am planning a surprise birthday party for my dear husband who is turning 40 this year. Call me a glutton for punishment, I don't care.

The first party is coming up Saturday. Wayne is turning 6. What has blessed me the most about this is watching the siblings get involved. Some of them are working on making a pinata for the party. Several chipped in money for the project. The excitement is growing.

I'll post pictures soon. In fact I'll post many pictures in the next few konths. Birthday season is fast and furious around here. Starts in April and over in October. 2 Parties in June, 1 in August and 1 in October.

LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!

I worked out side a bit.

I mentioned to the kiddos that I was going to head outside to mow. They got a longing look in their eyes and starting dropping hints that they would like to mow. Please mom?

Well what in the world? Who am I to meet them to from enjoying the great outdoors?

So, I took this opportunity to do a bit of gardening. I had a few plants needing planting. While I was out there i noticed plants that could use thinning. I got busy.

The end result.


Plus the yard got mowed. I love the outdoors. Don't you?
