Spending MORE time outside!

Yes, it was plenty warm today....at least 70' and sunny, so when I got home, Rob was the coolest...he had hooked up the hose to the slide again and let the girls put on their swimsuits.
Yesterday, Farmer Frank (he asked the kids if he could put a chick on their head) from Sunrock Farm brought goats, a rabbit, a pig, sheep and chicks to our school. A goat nibbled on my skirt!

We went to the Kite Fest and saw some amazing kites, many were like giant windsocks, shaped like fish or a penguin....the funniest one were these legs & soccer ball! On the way home we went to IKEA. It was so inspiring. I wish I had extra money to get some new furniture!I love this grass...the tops dry and swirl. My mother-in-law let me cut down the bush and I put it in a lovely bouquet by my fireplace. I would like to buy some to plant in our yard. Does anyone know what it's called?

Wow! It is really warm where you are! I love the chick! I'd be a sad puppy without sleeves here.

And, can you imagine the scrapbook page with that grass? The swirlys you can use! Sigh!

I have no idea what they are called, though.
