Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all of our 2 and 4 legged moms!  We hope that everyone had a relaxing day!!!

Amy was on Grand Island NY for the week working on purple martin structures - a sunrise and Niagara River picture.


Addie working on a Girl Scout activity: drawing an animal picture on a t-shirt using her hand as the pattern - a trumpeter swan.

Meanwhile, Ayson and Adam were at the fishing derby.  Addie started out at the derby but got cold after an hour and wanted to go home.  Ayson and Adam "hunted" for night crawlers (worms) Friday night and they had massive success with the worms!  Participants came by to ask Ayson what type of bait he was using :)

Ayson caught a total of 6 rainbow trout and 1 sunfish:)  He won 2nd place, for the 6th grade for the longest fish - 12 1/2 inches.  His prize was a new fishing pole (last year he won a tackle box).

TaDa!

Ayson wanted to eat the fish - so Adam showed Ayson how to clean and prep the fish.


Then the fish were cooked on the grill.

We have Baltimore oriels and humming birds!!!


On Sunday, we spent the day gardening - Addie helping Adam plant the front planters with flowers.


The kids and Adam made two new bird houses to replace the broken bird houses in our yard:)
Amy and her pretty Mother's Day flowers: three hanging baskets and three potted flowers :)
