Tyler's class went on a field trip to the strawberry patch. The strawberry's weren't ready yet but we had fun checking out the animals, playing on the big slide, and eating some strawberry's that had been picked already! We also got a tour of the greenhouse and planted a few sunflower seeds.

He catches me....

I was making dinner tonight and Tyler saw me take a piece of summer squash that was cooking from the fry pan (I was testing it to see if it was cooked!) Well, he wanted to taste something too. I offered squash, but he said Yuck! The only other option was the uncooked spaghetti noodle and

he decided that's what he needed! What a surprise he got!

A picture of part of the new kitchen! More to be posted later!

Another gone by too quickly

What an awesome weekend! Saturday morning was Lukas's soccer game (I'm not sure what kind of move he's making here......) We came home and quickly changed our clothes and went to the Spring Horse Races here in our town. We joined the tailgate party of some friends and forgot all about the horses races by! The weather was perfect, sunny and warm. Sunday, after meeting we went out to eat with the Synstad's and Prices and then enjoyed a rainy afternoon to catch up on our naps!

Out with the old....

FINALLY, the new kitchen has arrived. After 4 years of wondering what to do, the architect finally came thru! We (well our contractor) moved walls and a door to gain 22 inches in the kitchen to have a big U shape! I keep asking myself, why did we wait so long??? Its mostly done, we're waiting for the cork floor and hardware for the cabinets. Did I tell you I love my new kitchen?? I'll try to add a picture or two tomorrow!
