GUNS!!!




So the other day the kids decided that they needed to show me their guns! Wow! How does that bumper sticker go?...My kids could beat up your kids!!! :)

Overlook Park




There is a park that overlooks Lake Champlain and The Adirondack Mountains (in NY) so brilliantly named Overlook Park. It has some amazing views. You really have to be here in order to appreciated how beautiful it is. But I think some of the pictures have done it justice. We got there a little before sundown and walked some, then came back to the spectacular view and snapped these pictures. I hope y'all enjoy them as much as we did...

During The Last Blog


So, while I was so faithfully writing the last blog, Norah had something else in the works. She decided she needed to look pretty. I obviously was working for a long time and didn't realize it because she sure made a lot of her face pretty. She's so crazy!!

Anansi and the Moss-Covered Rock




So last week Macy had her 1st grade school play. The title of the play is "Anansi and the Moss-Covered Rock." It was a cute story about Anansi the spider and how he played tricks on all the other animals by making them say the magic words that would put them to sleep. Then he would steal their fruit and take it back to his place. Then the smart Little Bush Deer where not fooled and they tricked Anansi into saying the magic words. He fell asleep and they took all the food back and gave it to the other animals. In the beginning of the play the Wise ol' Zebras warned all the animals to not say the magic words. That was Macy's part. She did a great job and was very cute. I'm sorry the pictures are so dark. I couldn't get my camera to work right. Anyway, three cheers for Macy! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!

One week and counting...




Well, Macy is almost done with school. We have one week left. I will be so excited for her to be done with 1st grade. She was in school for 10 months exactly!! She started in GA on August 13th and is finishing in VT on June 13th!!! We are excited about the summer. It actually has been 90 the last two days! Though, I'm sure it will be back in the 70s or 80s soon enough. We are going to try to stay busy during the summer. There are lots of places we can go to and explore here in Vermont. Well, here are some current pictures of the kids. I hope you enjoy them.

Welcome to the Jungle...



Hey Everyone! So, I know a few months ago we had bare trees and snow all over the place. Well, not anymore!! As most of you know, we live above a dentist's office. Well, that means we are on the top of the house where the tops of the trees are. Here are a few pictures to show you what we see every time we leave the house. Enjoy!
