"Oh Susquehanna, River of Dreams..."

During a nearby baseball practice we decided to head over the dyke to explore the Susquehanna for a bit.  It was a beautiful afternoon for throwing rocks into the river!

Jack's 14th Birthday

We had a small family party for Jack this year.  Grandma and Pappy were able to be here for his birthday and to see the Spring Program.  

Jack continues to love piano, video games, legos, basketball...and hunting!  And we are continually being blessed by this amazing kid!!

 Scary, huh!!

Birthday present from Pappy

It's been so fun seeing Jack mature into a young man.  We continue to pray that God leads him wherever he goes.  We're excited to see what God has in store for his next year of life as he starts high school in the fall!!

Can I freeze time?

  I have always told Jack, "No matter how big you get, you're always going to be my baby!!"

And it remains true!

The Blankey Fairy

"The Blankey Fairy" has come to our house for the very last time (sigh)!!  When Drew was a baby he chose Bob's baby blanket that his grandma made for him to be his chosen blankey.  It was well loved and was falling apart, so we figured it was time.  Plus since Drew sucked on it (the thought of sucking on yarn makes me cringe!!) it was always so STINKY!!!!

And here is the big boy sleeping without his beloved "Blankey".

Spring Program 2015

This year Jack was chosen to accompany the students on the piano.

 My good looking crew!!

He did great!  So proud of you, Jack!!

Spring Piglets

Spring Snow

This year we didn't get much snow, so the kids were thankful for one last snowfall to play in (at least I'm hoping its our last!!)

Spring!!

We just love when spring suddenly arrives and new growth starts to pop up everywhere!  It's one of my favorite times of year!

 Asparagus!

 Apple Blossoms!

 Garlic!

 Strawberry Blossoms!
