Today

Tonight I'm going to do a little updating - I'm a month behind!  Oops!  Life has been a whirlwind this past month!

For example - today.  It was crazy, and we didn't even have any soccer games!  We went to the opening day of the Farmer's Market, and the girls potted up pansies and got a free lettuce seedling.  We did a huge yard cleanup, including mowing, weed whacking, edging, fertilizing, pulling weeds, etc.  Our veggie garden is doing great; the lettuce, spinach, peas, and onions are thriving!  We went on a nice walk on the Clinton River trail, and saw dozens of monarchs desperately looking for milkweeds to lay their eggs.  Then Chris cooked up a yummy Cinco de Mayo dinner - fajitas with carne asada, chicken, & grilled veggies, rice & beans, and corn on the cob.  After dinner he finished up his packing and headed back to the airport for yet another trip to Turin for a week.  The girls played outside while I did bug work in the garage, then we all came in for showers and a grapefruit for dessert.  Katie is having a sleepover in Megan's room tonight - so sweet!

Tomorrow the girls sing together in the children's choir at church, AND they each have a soccer game.  No rest for us!

This is how I found Megan when I came upstairs after showers.  What a monkey!

Oh, and I found a cool video from one of the girls' favorite songs that we all enjoyed watching tonight -- http://youtu.be/AKuBMihmVHQ
