so it begins

The first of many summer adventures....

A (posh) bus ride to Bayfield for the day

to lap up the sun,

playtime, 

and ice cream, of course.

new-to-us

This summer list sums up our days lately....

New-to-us hammock

has been oodles of fun.

 

And new-to-us piggy friends

 "Little A" (or is it "Little Eh"?)

 and "The Force" are warmly welcomed with LOTS of attention.

Oh summer days,

 so full and fleeting! 

neat and tidy

Everything in its place, 

in neat and tidy rows. 

The fruits of our labor 

align just so, looking smart.

Inside, chaos reigns 

and order unravels.

Let's just slip back outside, shall we?

birds & boys

 Lots of fuzzy friends provide endless entertainment,

and one flies in to keep us company. 

Go power zoom. 

Little hands 

and medium-sized hands stay busy. 

Go spring go.

upon us

Breezy spring balloon days usher in new freedoms.

After-dinner exploring and

zip-lining in beginner,

intermediate,

and advanced style.

New haircuts and

a new birthday bow.

It must be spring!

sun & sand

 A colorful, 

 warm,

and very sandy

 respite spent in SC

with Grandma & Pop!

 Mr. Birthday looking....10.

CHOMP - back to April in the north! 

on a sunday

On this sunny Sunday,

 we chip away at the playhouse-wonder-fort,

 stockpile giant bundles of pussy willows,

 tend to the little green patch,

and burn off some grass to make way for new plantings.
