So far behind with the feeling of giving up but here I go again.......... Once upon a time there was a family of four. The mother thought she would keep a blog about the everyday happenings in life. She would post a few then a long span of time would go by and then a few more. It wasn't that nothing ever happened in her little part of the world or that she was too busy to post. She was and is a good example of procrastination. Her favorite words are tomorrow, later, soon, maybe, next time, we'll see, if and there are more. She is a dreamer..... if only it could be, if it was this way it would so much easier.... I wish I could be more like her..... And she is a pessimist (which is a optimist with experience) It is a good thing the rest of family is somewhat normal and that is what keeps her going.

March brought two visitors..... sadly one took some germs away with her.... nice she read to the children
A nice to it yourself hairdo.... and happy about it
Last of March came a trip down to Evansville IN during Joseph's spring break. Downtown Evansville..... Ohio River is still high and out of its banks in some places.
We went to the Train Muesuem while downtown. There was a few train cars we could go through and inside they had made a little town with trains moving around.
Second weekend of April we went up to see Grandma Millie at Tammy's. Grandma was not doing very well that weekend. Abigail made friends with Buddy.
Smile!!!
Joseph and Abigail enjoyed the pool at the hotel. Then we woke up Sunday morning to snow.
Walking around the farm...... well one gets the privilege of being pulled in the wagon..... nice of big brother
Under one of the trailers we found a birds nest. Must have been from another year and it made us wonder if the birds got to live there and raise a family
Little sister gets a bedtime piggy back ride from big brother
Joseph sang a two sentence solo at a May school program. I didn't know he was going to have a part like that..... and it was probably a good thing I didn't.
Wisconsin River at Wisconsin Rapids.
Little sister trying to help big brother by tying his shoe
Joseph made lunch for Abigail and himself
Tent time..... and they slept there for the night to their delight
First weekend of June we went up to see Grandma Millie.
Showing Grandma some art work
Cooking and eating out
When we planned to go up we didn't realize it was graduation weekend. Four cousins graduated.... Rebecca, Caleb, Ashley and Jessi (not pictured)
Road work began on Hwy 59. It was very interesting to see how they did it...... less interesting when trying to get to work.
Swim lessons started. He looks a bit scared.....
Met Hunter and Blaine at Cushing Park....
Daddy's Day
Grandpa Sam and Grandma Mary came for a visit towards the end of June. Made a trip to the zoo. One day we went Milwaukee to see Lake Michigan (forgot to upload pictures)
I think Abigail would have let the grand parents push her in the swing all day. My Dad said that Abigail told him to come outside and push her. I said well what did you do.... he says I pushed her... she is making the plans.
There was a little festival in Wales at the park.
Too many pictures to post at once..... guess that is why one should do it on a weekly schedule
