Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fun Memorial Day weekend with Mike, Amanda, Dane & Nora. Grampy & Grammy got the kids a playset and it needed to be assembled. We managed to make that project last for most of the weekend but we did take some time to enjoy a baseball game in Kensington on Saturday, a delicious buffet brunch in Alexandria Sunday noon and a hot dog and marshmallow roast over a nice fire Sunday evening.

Dane and Nora are eager to help!

A BIG MOVE

Pearl's Dad and Mom have sold sold their farmstead and have moved into a townhouse near Lisbon.  We have had several "moving days" in the past month.  We've worked hard, but we've had alot of fun too!  Ben even made us fresh squeezed lemonade one Saturday while we were hard at it!





Danella was the "chief cook and bottle washer" !


A few views of the farm house pretty much emptied out.














Here's some pictures of Dad and Mom's townhouse.














Some important details...planting a few pots of flowers for Mom!





This is Ron, Cheryl, Caleb, Daniel, Haley and James. 
This is the family that has bought Dad and Moms' farmstead. 
This picture was taken by Dad and Mom's townhouse.


Haley is in love with the kittens on the farm! 
Just like four little girls that lived there many years ago!




Haley and her chickens in the chicken coop at the farm...


....but she loves the chickens alot more than the four little girls did that 
lived there years ago liked the chickens!


Our family is so happy to have a nice little family 
with lots of activity out on the farm again!



DANE TURNED 4 IN MARCH

Mommy made Dane this cute cake for his birthday.
He is growing up so fast!






Nora enjoyed Dane's cake too!
