Bella, Gabe and Josiah

Once again, I am behind in posting. In my defense, the last couple of weeks have been pretty crazy… Pat was out of town for work for most of a week. Then he came back sick. Then a few days later his parents started having some struggles, so he flew up to help and was gone for most of another week. Meanwhile Gram and Gramps were here, Bella turned 19, it’s Spring Break, the internet went out for a few days and Josy’s school caught on fire. So, um, never a dull moment? Meanwhile, here are some pictures of the last few weeks… Apparently Lucy likes sleeping in the snow gear. It was sunny, so we went to play in the woods. Someone needed to have the entire giraffe family listen to the story. Gabe made a fishing pole…and caught a catfish. St. Patrick’s Day dinner The last day of ski lessons, which was good because there has been very little snow. We had to make a Chicken Pot Pie for Pi day. Gabe sang at his school talent show. Every night I put the boys to bed in their own bed and when I wake...

I picked up our pottery this afternoon! They turned out so great!

Last night was STEAM night, which we’d never been to before. It was amazing! We could have spent a whole lot more time there. The boys ran lego robots, dissected fish, played logic games, took apart electronics, did printmaking, made slides and looked at algae, planted seeds, looked at the stars and looked at sea lion skulls. And there were a whole bunch of rooms that we did not get to. It was a really cool event and Josy is already talking about what he wants to do next time.

 Look whose home for the weekend!!

Last week, we decided to paint some pottery! The first tank needs some new decorations, Pat was out of town and the internet was down, so it was the perfect time to go. Our creations are still being fired, so we don’t have the final products yet, but we had a lot of fun painting them. Bella’s wasn’t finished, so hers didn’t make the final photo. But the other ones turned out cute!
