The girls asked if they could take some pictures with my camera, and i reluctantly obliged, but they didn't break it, and they got some cute pictures!

most of our yard is covered in shade because of all the pretty trees we have everywhere.  it's very nice since it's like atleast 10 degrees cooler in the shade than it is in the sun light.

Lucy's wanted me to start giving her cooking lessons recently, and ofcourse, i'm more than happy to do so since that is what i spend a lot of time doing; cooking and baking.  And cleaning, but i don't think she's interested in cleaning lessons...

So, the kids have just been enjoying the new house and loving the space we have to entertain all of their cousins.  at the same time.  i know.  it's awesome.
