Except for the blanket, which I put on, Gabriele literally made himself comfortable. Guess he was taking advantage of the tv time while his brother was sleeping!

I made 2 Weight Watchers recipes today. Super Easy Cream of Broccoli Soup and Blueberry Squares...they were both very yummy.

We took the Girl Scout troop out to work on their Camper badge today.

Gianni is very proud that he can pick up his brother...now to teach him how to set him down nicely without his normal just letting go and dropping him... : )

While waiting for Eric to get out of the gas station today I spotted this old relic.

Tabitha joined us at the Turner School Sock Hop. She was really, really good at limbo

Looking at #1 of the season - darn chipmunks. Upside is that the boys love to catch and release them, down side is that they are wrecking my grass and plant beds!

I opened the door and Gabriele escaped - and didn't want to come back inside!

Marla-April 26, 2012

Finally went to a Weight Watchers meeting after missing for about a month. I am going to try my best to get back on track.

Trying out an experiment...and, just to let you know...sleds do NOT work on grass very well.

Maureen April 24, 2012

The sunlight was washing out the picture on our robin webcam, so we put together an awning to shade it, today. Bonus for the robin is that it will keep her dry in the rain, if it doesn't blow away.

Gabriele wishing he was playing in Coopers game!
And, Cooper running after he got a hit!

Maureen April 23, 2012

We set up a webcam to stream our robin's nest to the internet, today.

Dylan working on one of the 5 papers that he has left to write before he can graduate in 10 days.

I always feel a bit honored when a bird chooses to make her nest in our yard. Found this one, today, when I was taking laundry in & startled mom who flew away. She has built her nest on top of the water meter in our backyard.

The Zoo

I spent most of my day, today, at Girl Scout Adult Outdoor Education classes, so that I would have the proper training to take our troop camping next weekend.

I decided it was a great idea to Spring Clean - so, everything (pictures, etc) has been relocated to our dining room table while I clean everything. I think I'm in over my head..... : )

Marla-April 17, 2012

We had left over spaghetti so Cole wanted to try Spaghetti Tacos for dinner tonight.

We were reading on the swing out front, when Shel got some toy stuck in the tree. So, they tried to get it out by throwing my this-swing-is-uncomfortable-for-my-back-pillow at it.

Goofy little boy

Annie's Girl Scout troop is planning on going tent camping in a few weeks, some of the girls for the first time ever. I went out to the campsite, today, to take a few pictures to share with them at our meeting tonight. This is a pretty little alcove near our campsite.
