Pictures are worth 1000 words. . .

. . .so instead of boring you with words, I thought I would give a quick update through pictures! Enjoy!

Maren, Jacob, Lukas, Josh and Evan getting ready to go cheer the Carroll HS Boys Varsity Volleyball team and Coach Nana to victory.

This is what Richard does in his spare time. He is using a radio to communicate with a satellite.

Evan ready to go on his first bike ride

Big Dawg (my step-dad) and Richard taking the kids (minus Josh) for a bike ride. They LOVED it!

Making a house for the garden gnomes at Wegerzyn Children's Garden


Mommy and Evan "planting" some flowers at the sand table

Canoing. . . .in the mulch! Joshua was not a fan!

Lukas and Jacob wading through the stream

What could be more fun than a waterfall on a hot day?

Crazy Maren!

I could snuggle with this boy all day!

Playing in the water

Joshua took on the waterfall. . .

. . .the waterfall won!

Jill- Anna would LOVE it! We should get together and take the kids! We can talk adoption, they can run through the waterfall, play in the sand and build houses for garden gnomes!!

I don't know Valerie, Joshua looks pretty happy after experiencing that waterfall!

Great pictures - Your children all look like they're having a blast!

And yes, you're welcome to move in at our house, but we'll have to get quite a few more beds!!!
