Catching Up Through Pictures

Wow - where did the last 2 months go!  I can't believe time flies so fast.  Here are the top 10 happenings since my last posting:

1.  Spring Fling at Purdue (but we're old enough to know it as the Bug Bowl)



(yup - that's ol' John Purdue below)
2.  Easter.  We spent the day with some friends, and went to a local park for a few pictures of the families.



  (And the obligatory egg hunt afterwards)

3.  Fat Night

4.  Cub Scout Shootout - with archery

 and BB guns

and sling shots (with dog food as ammunition)

5.  Pre-Kindergarten Graduation

6.  The Flood - just another spring shower

7.  The Monster Lego Set - So we've been teaching Kiddo #2 about money.  He decided to pool all his Christmas money, Birthday money, some bank money (and a loan from Kiddo #1) to buy the Lego set 42055 - The Bucket Wheel Excavator.

It has just under 4000 pieces.  The instruction book is 550 pages.  

 It took him a solid 4 days of work, with some tender fingers thereafter.

8.  Mother's Day - it was a beautiful day of weather.

9.  Portage Pads - for carrying the canoes.  Once I made up my mind, I was able to make them rather quickly.




10.  Kiddo #3 Sleeping.  Nothing too special, other than rounding out my tenth place to make a nice even number.
