Hello, May!!!!

All is well with A^4 and we welcomed May with open arms!!!  Too bad cold weather is in our future.  We hope that all of our family and friends are making the most of the extra down time - we are enjoying the not as rushed week days and Sunday evenings :)  More time for FUN! 

To sum up our week, we enjoyed:
Gorgeous sunsets


And sunrises


and Spring!  Look close at the strip of brown in the green field - you can just make out the tractor plowing up the field


Addie waiting for her teacher to post the daily assignment.  One day last week she started waiting at 730 and the assignment did not post until 8 am...hahaha.


Addie using her "less electronic time" to build and PLAY!


Shadow hiding in the barn


We went for a walk Wednesday afternoon at Tracy Lake and discovered trillium in bloom :)


A few of our tulips




Thursday night activity: drawings with glitter!!!!  We will find glitter in random spots of the house for the next year:)


Ayson making a paper chain


It did not take Ayson long to get into the glitter






Glitter might be a great may to determine how often a person touches their face - hahaha.


Saturday night smores!




We could hear the spring peepers as we watched "our" two bats searching for their dinner.  Can you spot the bat?  The kids have named our bats "Brownie" and "Strawberry"  :)


Sunday morning breakfast.  Service with a smile!


Crazy warm day on Sunday with a high of 76 in "Little Florida" so the kids big and small had a water balloon fight :)
Ayson's yellow balloon is zooming towards Adam


Addie's first attempt to hit Adam resulted in her balloon busting and a stripe of water


Standoff




There goes Addie's balloon!


Sunday evening fun :)
