Our Weekend!

Weekends in the spring are so CrAzY with kIds!! We woke up early, raked the back yard and then off to swimming lessons we went! The kids did a great job! Christopher jumped off the diving board again and Anneli went off in the water with one of our Lifeguard friends and had a super time! Next week they test and then the week after is FREE PLAY! Super fun! (sorry I didn't have my camera with me!)

After swimming Christopher had his first soccer game! It is so much fun watching beginning soccer players. Both teams did a great job and all the kids had a fun time. We even had fun watching and cheering on the side line for BOTH teams. Christopher was the goalee two times. He did awesome! Way to go Chris. Just keep your eye on the ball! (Christopher is purple #3.)


Waiting for the ball to come his way!



Goalie in action!



Keep going Chris!



Turn the ball around Chris!

In town this week it is Big Trash Pickup. We put our old Microwave that kicked the bucket a few weeks ago out for the Big Trash Pickup. We put it out at about 11:30am on Saturday and when we came back from soccer it was gone! A "trash picker" (as we call them) picked it up. We had a bet that it wouldn't last an hour!

One man's trash is another man's treasure...

We also had a blast as a family in the garden this weekend. We are looking forward to harvesting our own squash, zuccini, beans, peas, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, and maybe even pumpkins and watermelon! Super fun! The kids had fun with their first garden last year--hopefully our vegetables will be more plentiful this year!!

It's small, but a good size for our backyard!
