hello spring


It was a beautiful day yesterday..around 57*..though the wind was blowing and gusting making it feel cooler.
We had a picnic in the late afternoon.. kids came and rode their bikes and flew kites. Paul brought hickory for the fire, and we grilled hot dogs and burgers.

Saturday the children went to an exposition on preventing brain damage by using bike safety. When it was over, each person attending received a brand new bike helmet.
















Annabelle, Joyce, Daniel, and Paul3 in the bed of Keith's new truck, Big Bird.









Everyone wanted a look at the new truck








Flying kites was high on the agenda for the day. I had flown mine even before the children arrived, and had caught it in trees and brambles 3 times before the string broke. Sigh.
Joyce is helping Annabelle get her's in the air.
