Thomas' Surprise 21st Birthday Party

A fun night celebrating my nephew

Vacation Week

Enjoying a warm day at the park

Sometimes they get along

 Visiting a friends farm

 Goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, cows, and 5 kids all homeschooled...she's one busy mom!

Giving the dog a bath is always a highlight!

"Spring cleaning" in Parsonsfield

 To say my father in law was a pack rat would be an understatement

These boys played hard

Uncle Billy giving them clues for a scavenger hunt

These guys worked hard

 Helping neighbors do their yard work is always more fun

and back to school Monday...

Caroline wanted to look like the girl on her shirt!

Picture Day!

Caroline's hip hop dance class

 

 Costume and makeup...she loved it!

That smile! 

Poses are all her  

 

 

Happy Easter!

She chose the dress!

Happy 9th Birthday Charlotte!

Note the little bunny ears!

She chose Applebees for dinner.

Sister life...Caroline didn't waste any time, ha ha!

Dad/Papa

These past 2 weeks have been awful, for lack of a better word.  Our hearts are filled with shock and sadness.  Our Dad and Papa will be greatly missed. 😢
