May

Some of the happenings of May.

Andrew and Matthew ran a 10K.

Coming up to the finish line...

On a hot day, a water fight isn't a bad way to cool off.

Farm Update

Our 'farm' now consists of 2 steers, a hive of bees, and 1 dog.

Lydia recently got her bees she has patiently been waiting for. (They couldn't come until it had warmed up a bit)

Tessy is doing well...

...and has found that dandelions actually taste pretty good... at least when someone it tossing them to you...

Early Spring

School work still continues

Our church had a fine and practical arts fair in which Lydia and Andrew performed.

With all the rain we have gotten recently, the grass is just shooting up... which means it's time to mow the lawn. (Need your grass mowed?? Hire this lawn service!)
