Happy Easter

 

Don't Pick Flowers

Kathryn is really excited about our blooming flowers. Niamh is too, but she picked petals off of a tulip and it upset Kathryn.

Kaleidoscope

t.p. or not t.p.

If only this were my first or second... or third time walking into a scene like this.

Monster Robots

These magnets Kathryn got for her birthday are a huge hit! 
Here are some of our latest creations. 
I hope some of them have been programmed to fold and put away laundry...

Cozy Cow Dairy

The girls and I went to Cozy Cow Dairy. We loved it! The animals seemed well-cared for and happy. After watching the milking process and taking a tour we treated ourselves to some natural ice cream from the on-site store. I didn't get any photos of that, because I had the two kids plus bar stools and ice cream cones to reckon with, but it was divine. Sometimes I wish we lived on a farm so we could be surrounded with these wonders, but then I think about all the work and I'm glad we can just visit. 
It was a lovely field trip, and we will be back soon.
