Spring!

After all this drenching rain, our little 1 year old peach tree is in bloom! Sariah here shows us how happy she is about peaches!
Of course we will have to pick off most of the fruit to prevent damaging the small branches with oversized fruit, but we do hope to keep a few to test out how yummy our peaches will be!!

ACK!

Look at all this fun going on in our front yard... Water meters are going in this week. Lucky us. We won't actually be metered until next November, drats... water meters. Though I can understand why they are installing them... I don't appreciate the extra cost. I think I agree with my sister when she says that the government would charge us for air and sunshine if they could.... ACK!

FHE Fun

Tuesday night we decided to take a trip to the mall. The Lego store has a free give-away once a month to any kids that come in between 5-7pm. The kids were pretty excited (except Jonah for a while) to see so many legos and were pretty good waiting in the crowds for their bucket of free legos. They all assembled their leprochaun and pot of gold with help from John, though Jonah did his mostly on his own. After a few pictures here and there we were ready to head off to the food court for dinner. Each child earned a quarter (by eating a red bell pepper piece from John's food) for a gumball. Katie John shows off her watermelon gumball here:
When we arrived home after such a fun time, we wrapped up our evening with an exciting game of Disney Scene it. To the boys' dismay, Team Mommy won AGAIN! What a fun family night!
