I had to take a picture of my lovely lilacs! I open up our kitchen window and let the scented breeze come in! Even if it is a rainy day, I can smell the lilac blossoms and it lifts my spirits! 
We have cheap entertainment around here. We got balloons for Thomas' birthday, and the babies love looking at them. I decided to tie them onto the babies so that they wouldn't keep floating away. It was a hit!
We also made strawberry jam this week! Our supply was getting low! Bella could eat jam plain if I let her! Thomas was LOVING snitching at the jam while he stirred.
Yesterday, we met Josh at the Farm. Josh was there golfing with work buddies, and we needed something fun to do in the good weather!
We got there just in time to help them milk the cow!!! Bella stood right by the lady and watched. The other kids helped! 
They had darling baby goats there!!! They were so cute. It was funny to watch them run around a butt each other's heads. 
We had to swing by the jail.
Last time we went, the kids were mad that they didn't get to play in the farming part. Kaley's OCD quickly took over, and she had us organizing and filing the "seeds." 
Bella had fun putting all her "seeds" in the tire.
Then the kids got to ride the ponies! They were thrilled! They named each of their ponies Bulls Eye, like on Toy Story. 
Thomas was mad that we forgot his cowboy hat! I guess he'll have to remember next time!

wow, I want to go to that farm! i love the pictures from under the cow. so creative. And lilacs do smell lovely!
Oh the homemade jam... go ahead and send some of that my way. I'm pretty sure I single handedly ate through 1/2 of your mom's jam food storage while we were living together. Delicious!!
Looks like you're keeping busy with your cute kids. I'm way jealous of your lilacs (they're my favorite).
Yes, we both have a sibling in choir this year. We will (most likely) have a sibling in choir until 2016, so we'll definitely be there tomorrow, and for many years to come. :)
Hope to see you there!
