It's BLOOMin hot!

It was so hot on Friday that we had to celebrate with an icecream cone! The kids wanted to run around in their swimsuits. Typically, I wouldn't have a problem with it since it was 85, however, the bugs were also bloomin' We used some bug spray and enjoyed the afternoon in shorts.
Christian might need his own chair since climbing in and out of the kids entertained him for a good chunk of the afternoon.





The Weaping Cherry tree is in full bloom. We've been enjoying observing
the massive, fuzzy bumblebees.





Getting our fruits, veggies, and herbs off to a good start! Thanks to Grandma for giving us all the important gardening tools: shovels, gloves, watering cans, etc...

Carter and Elle are so dedicated (and innocently opptomistic) about their plants. Each night they both pray for them. The hot weather has been a good thing since they LOVE watering them. We have to keep close dibbs on these plants since we bring them in each night. Gus has discovered he likes chewing on plant leaves! Ahhhh!

Our very own gardeners


"Look mom, I can get my own snack!"
Ohhhhh NOoooooo! Mommy can't even go to the bathroom by.her.self! Because when she does....so little munchkin of mine makes a mess! This time it just so happened to be a cute and fairly easy to clean mess! "Cheeze Its are crunchy mom!"
