Mighty Mechanic

Nice picture Pastor! One of the many things that Seth has to do... until Riverdale finds a good mechanic.

Ample Ants

So, I noticed a couple of ants roaming around on my counter top and decided to set out some poison. I think the whole colony found it! Yuck!

Lovely Lilacs

We have a lilac bush right outside our front door on the corner of our house and it sort of wraps itself around to our living room window. I just had to go out and pick some. They smell so lovely!

Refreshing Rain

The cool rain has been so refreshing after the warm dusty windy day yesterday. Kevin pointed out the "waters" and was quite fascinated.

Hobbies at Home

This picture makes me laugh. Kevin was in mid sentence of his long explanation of the very cool fire truck.

Such a goofy exprssion!

A fire truck had to come and put out a fire in the pasture and Kevin enjoyed hearing the big vrooms and backup beepers, and seeing the flashing lights.

Here Kevin is "helping" me do some scrapbooking;o)

Enjoying Each Other

It was nice to be able to truly relax this last Sunday afternoon. We all enjoyed a nice long nap, and then just enjoyed each other's company. Family time is so precious!

Kevin loves to work out with his Papa. I think he's doing push ups;o) It is so funny to watch him watch Seth.Kevin loves brushes. I had just finished taking a shower and Kevin wanted to brush my hair.

Big Boy Boots

Kevin just got brand new boots! We found them on clearance and were pretty excited. He definitely knows what boots are - shock!

Appetizing Asparagus

Seth and I (and secretly Kevin too. Hee!) have really been enjoying the fresh asparagus right outside our door (thanks family!). Apparently, some people who really enjoy asparagus will actually go "asparagus hunting" by driving along the ditches to be able to enjoy fresh yummy asparagus as opposed to that store-bought mush you can get;o) What a funny thought. Anyway, I never used to like asparagus until I actually had it made the right way. Now I love it! Our next pleasure will be rhubarb. That will take some getting used to as well I think, but I do know that I've liked it sometimes. Seth wants me to make rhubarb sauce (like applesauce) - a family favorite of his. We'll see how it goes;o) I feel like we are so spoiled with such yummy garden goodness!

Kissing Kousins

Helping Emma put on her doll's shoe ;o)

Aww, how sweet!

I know, another mother posts another picture of her son giving kisses. Some things just can't be helped ;o)

They both had so much fun. Kevin decided to read Emma a book while they both sat on their little toy box bench. Kevin and I went to visit Aunt Darlene and the girls while Seth was gone. We had a good time (obviously;o).

Craft Corner

This is what I do when I procrastinate something else that I have to finish;o)

What I did yesterday.

Blowing Bubbles

Grandma came outside and played bubbles with Kevin. He was so excited chasing around the bubbles.

Sweet Sleeper

My little love bug!

Big Belly

Just so that you all know that, yes, I am big and pregnant. I guess the last picture didn't do me justice;o)

So Sweet!

I am so thrilled!!! After spending Saturday yard saling with my dear sweet mother (who came up just for the day!) Seth came home and surprised me with a brand new sewing machine! I was putting all of my finds away that I had put on the couch, and when I came back to put the next thing away, there it was smiling at me in the middle of all my purchases! What a sweet husband!
