Bountiful Blossoms and Other Happenings

The view that has greeted us every morning for the past week!

On Tuesday we made parachutes out of plastic grocery bags.

We tied the boy's little construction men to the parachutes, scrunched them up and threw them into the air. They came down a little to fast for my liking, but the boys didn't know any different and thought it was great fun.

Boyd, still a bit young for this sort of thing. He liked swinging his around and pulling the little man off. He had a good time non-the-less.

A little trip to the park.

Tyler playing "hospital man." He says, "Mommy, your the policeman and I'm the hospital man. You can go find the people that need help."

Our tree again with an afternoon thunder storm brewing in the background.

Okay, that's it for this week. Have a wonderful weekend!

The walkway is sure looking nice. I keep thinking about how much your kids will enjoy looking back through all these blog posts when they're teenagers (and older). My kids reminisce about things they did when they were little, but we have very few pictures. Kudos to you, Melinda!
