Teardrop is weld underway

Dad-Dad came over on Saturday to work on the trailer base for the teardrop trailer. He brought his welding equipment and Lane had his first introduction into welding! Awesome!

Art - Van Gogh

We've been having art classes every other week. This was our third meeting and we learned about Van Gogh and painted. We put glue in the acrylic paint to thicken it up because Van Gogh applied thick paint - sometimes even squirting the paint directly on the canvas. The art they create brings me joy... every time!

 

     

Curiosity lands on Mars!

I'm including this one here because it was taken earlier in the day and because it's just so cute!

We woke up Lane at around midnight to watch/listen to Curiosity land on Mars! It was awesome! Lane loves 'for specials'. Thank you, hubby, for knowing about that and sharing it with our family!

Matching monkeys

Grandma Karen got Brooke and Maggie-to-be matching outfits some months back. Now that Maggie's here we got to take pictures of them together!

Brooke and I went with Maggie and Marilyn to an event at the Botanic Gardens. Everyone nursed their babies (LOTS of people there) for a minute all together... I think it was to celebrate National Breastfeeding Awareness week. We got there 45 seconds into the minute :)! Anyway, it was neat to see AND we saw Danny and Kathy and sweet Kathy got this balloon for Brooke and I found a business that will take our used Fuzzi Bunz!

DMA with Grandpa Rufus

Grandpa Rufus joined us at the DMA for our monthly preschool class. Lane painted a skyscape and the Dallas skyline, including the building with the red pegasus on top! We played in Arturo's nest after the class. Ms. Leah is awesome!

Teardrop

Chad is very excited about building a teardrop trailer. This is the second model mockup.

Backyard fun!

Enjoying a relaxing morning watching babies in kiddie pool and sandbox.
