Steak on a stick

I think that's all we need to say.

Tree swing

Bret used a piece of wood from a shelf we pulled out of a closet, and bought a length of rope from the hardware store to make a front yard swing.

Hours of entertainment!

Wildlife area

Bret took the girls to this wildlife spot near our house while I was at the Public Library Association Conference (here in PDX). Note the SUN SHINING in Portland...see, everyone? It can be BEAUTIFUL here! ;)

Excitable girl

Vivian was given the right name for her...it means:

Full Of Life, Vibrant

Recycled art

Sabine made this creation with objects (they're not trash if they're being used in art, right?) she found in the grass alley behind our house...

DoJump! end of session show

The girls thoroughly enjoy their DoJump! class. Photos below are from their end of winter session show. They are in a homeschooling class together.

Children's Museum

One of the things we love about PDX are all the places to go/things to do with kids. The Children's Museum is a favorite.
