Ruby Falls

We went on a little hike.
We went on a little steep hike.
Here we go...

Beauty surrounds.

Goal achieved.

Awwww...

The tired grumpies...
They were troopers for the most part.
Long journey for little ones.

But over all an awesome hike.

Helen Georgia

In May we attended a homeschool conference,
Afterwards,we headed north for an adventure.
Came across a small town.
A little tooo touristy for our taste.
Here are some pictures.

Walking around the downtown area.

The boys did love this old train set up.
An older gentleman who moved here from Germany many
years ago built it for all to see...
for a price.

This old granary was interesting.
Still is in working condition.

Break

Been away from my blog for awhile.
Took a little blogging break.
Lots been going on here.
All good.
Happy to be back.

Many blessings.

Camping

Back in April, yes April...
Camping with the Cub Scouts.


This was a small camp ground, but beautiful.
 
Setting up their tent.

Hanging around.

A little tug of war.
Just a fun weekend in the outdoors.

Big Brother


He always comes along and looks out for us.

Rides rides with us.

Slides with us.

Always right there.

Wonder if he really knows how much we love
our Big Brother.

Staying Clean

Mommy is not raising any couch potatoes.
Our hands seldom stay clean.
Hand sanitizer?
Nope.
A soapy bath and a good scrub brush for us
before dinner.


 Nothing like a little water mixed with dirt, a few buckets, and a shovel.
Nothing expensive, nothing complicated.


 Oh, the places we go and the things we build.
Nothing impossible.
No limits.

Our imaginations soar.

Good clean fun.

Many blessings.

Small Home Garden

Our blog has been neglected somewhat
and that saddens me.
I look at our family blog as a family journal.
One to share with family and friends.
I love to look back and remember...
many happy memories.

So, starting afresh and a
little catching up to do.

These pictures are from the first of March.

We are finally planting our little home garden.
Still need to build a fence and many
buckets to fill.
But, all the seeds are in the ground this day.


 We were a little late in planting our seeds.
All gathered around with seeds in hand.

Placing our seeds carefully and covering with dirt.
Then a little pat.

All do their squares.
 
Looking forward to some yummy fresh veggies.

After A Game

After playing a hard, hot, tiring game of soccer
we like go to the marsh by the fields.
We talk soccer, of course.



We talk frogs and alligators.
 

We talk fish, mud, and sticks.


We talk about our future plans...


Sometimes we don't talk at all.

Many blessings

"Soccer Man"

"Soccer Man", I am. 
Nobody can catch me.
I am fast as lightning.
I have a one track mind.
Ball to the goal.
It does not matter which goal,
any goal will do.

  
Come on I am ready for you
because
I am
"Soccer Man!"

To Listen


Love the  simplicity of this saying.
Rings so true this time of year.
If you sit still for just a moment...oh the sounds you here.
The birds singing.
The winds stirring.
The marsh rabbits hopping through the brush.
Children giggling while playing in the water hose.
The cat purring.
Your breathing in and out.

Be quiet for just a moment opens up all
kinds of happiness.
Must make a habit out of this.

Many blessings.

Oh the Legos!


Over a million in this head.
Guess who?

Roar!

Yes, even Star Wars gets into the Lego act.
 
My little soldiers.

Cruising Around Legoland


Loving having full control of their cars.

A little brother friendly racing.

Obeying the traffic signals.

When all done, each got a driver's license.
Oh my!

Legoland


Hello Legoland!

The boys, planning their attack.

Wow, at the Legos!

Yes, loving life right now.
Many blessings

Family That Excercises Together...

Lined up and ready.
Waiting for the word "Go!"

 
And go they do!
Catch Mommy if you can.
Daddy stays back,
just in case a big monster comes up from behind.
Daddy has our back covered, smiles.

Many blessings.
