We had a great weekend and loved having Jared home for an extra day. We did yard work Monday morning and then in the afternoon, just relaxed and had fun in the backyard. We all ran through the sprinklers and enjoyed soaking up some sun!
At the beginning of the weekend we had two flower beds in our front yard that were full of weeds. By Monday, we had pulled all the weeds, put down landscaping fabric, spread bark, planted flowers and even added a few lights. It's nothing extravagant but looks so much better than it did!!
Monday evening after having hamburgers, Jared got a fire going and we enjoyed S'MORES!
I think its impossible to not get messy when you eat s'mores...
SHE READS!!!I ordered Mackayla the Bob Books and was finally able to pick them up this weekend. She LOVES that she can read whole books by herself and can hardly put them down. It's so exciting to watch her actually be able to read!!
Jacob, Bradley, and Jared all had colds this weekend and spent some time not feeling well. This is Bradley laying around feeling bad on Saturday. Jacob had it the worst and we're so glad he's finally starting to feel better!
Although it was not hot outside, the kids couldn't wait any longer to try out their new slip and slide so we set it up for them one evening last week. They only tried it a couple times before they got too cold but are excited to get it out again when we start having some summer weather.
This is some impressive work by Jacob: with only a single chocolate chip cookie, he was able to fully decorate his body.
Every once in a while, doing laundry does have it's perks! I sure love these little ones!!
