Joshua's 2nd Birthday

Brandon and Joshua having fun on Joshua's new swing set!

You can tell that it is past Joshua's nap time and he really is not too impressed with the birthday cake!

Ok Susan, here's one for you!

Yesterday Bob spotted this tiny, tiny (2 cms or so) frog(?) resting on the bud of a hosta. THe closest I can come to in identifying it is maybe the spring peeper but it seems to be lacking the X on the back. Any ideas?

What is that thing anyway?

This was a recent garage sale find and poor Joshua (or Chloe) did not know what to think of it! Sorry once again for holding the camera the wrong way. Hope you folks all have laptops!!

I took a chance and moved my columbine this spring (it was being overrun by the lily of the valley) but it seems to have liked the move.

Grandpa's Birthday

Mark, Margot and the kids came down for an overnighter to celebrate Grandpa's 64th birthday. Here are some pictures snapped during the visit.

Look at the delight on Joshua's face!

Great-grammy getting to know Ella
