Emma took this pretty picture Emma took this picture of the pretty water lilies on the pond.Logan with a champagne bottle top “monacle” on Father’s Day while we’re playing Five Crowns (Grant’s Mom gave us the game for Christmas & we really enjoy it…it’s a good game for a lot of people to play. We’ve played something similar called Three for Thirteen for years)Emma loves to buckle things (& then quickly demand you unbuckle them). She put on this Ergo carrier all by herself! (Lizzy had been “wearing” Ellie on her back right before)These Mama cats are so patient! ❤ I only dream of being so patient. (There are 8 kittens climbing on & eating in this picture…they even let Lizzy’s new kitten who is a bit older join in)Lucas was working on a puzzle while Keira & McKaylee played a game of Dutch Blitz. Ellie was watching……and making funny facesApparently so was Keira! (Making funny faces)McKaylee & Keira playing Dutch BlitzFlying kites on a GORGEOUS day. So thankful for opportunities like this & that I didn’t say no when the kids asked! ❤ (I’m not at all trying to toot my own horn, but reminding myself how important it is to say YES! whenever possible)Lucas & his kiteThe boys flying their kitesKeira made Ellie this kite out of construction paper & yarn. It kept Ellie happy for quite a while. ❤Emma made one out of brown paper & yarn. It didn’t work as well as the boys. But I appreciate the girls’ creativityEllie loves to play with her towel & LOVES swimming. Lucas is terribly ticklish. If anyone even pretends to tickle him, he laughs & laughs so much that he cries. Here McKaylee is pretending to tickle him. The next moment (I missed the picture!) he fell off his chair laughing so hard. 😂Lucas hanging out with me & Lexa’s baby bunnyLucas with Lexa’s bunnyA cute little baby bunny. Around 4 days old.
