March Madness

We do not regularly watch basketball... until March Madness
and then our whole lives change.  This year is no exception.
The boys are consumed with it and created these lovely
 decorated t-shirts.  We've learned all the states and capitals this year.
 Next year we'll learn how to SPELL them.
 

 

Drum Roll Please... The Final Project

Two months ago we began working on our kitchen.
I'm amazed and grateful to God looking at these

We've had this nasty sheet up for four years and I
took great pleasure taking this whole thing out.

Now it's one of my favorite parts of this kitchen:

Spring Visit

Mom and Dad stopped in for a few days on their way to Israel (!).
We made the most of it, working hard on the yard.

Charlie found a new toy he wants for his birthday...
 

The big project:  planting 23 raspberry plants!

 

Some worked harder than others

An idea

Seemed like a good idea...

Not the best picture, but Demaree realized she can do the splits!

 

Basketball

Almost two weeks ago Machen finished an
awesome season of basketball.
