Recently Darrell power raked our lawn. Well, it created quite a "stir" with our neighborhood kids. They saw the big piles of dead grass on our driveway and decided it would be a blast to jump and play in the piles like leaves in autumn time. As soon as Clara and Nolan came over, then Mathieu, Megann, Keaton, and Logan joined in the fun. They all thought that they were "helping" us load the trailer, but at times more grass was going out of the trailer then into the trailer. Several trips were made to the compost site with a different child accompanying Darrell with each trip that was made. It was quite a sight to see!! We had pizza and pop as a reward for all of the kids' "hard work" afterwards. :)
Clara was being a "ham" for the camera!!
Even Nolan got his little shovel to help us out...
Then Keaton got a bigger "scooper" (as he called it) to help out.
More fun in the back of Jim's trailer...
Luke came riding over to show us his new Spider-Man sunglasses.
A different kind of fun...check out my mask (compliments of Deb)!! :0)
More giggles with Jody and Alison...
Right before school got out, a former student (and a current student's brother) came back to surprise me. He was on military leave from Afghanistan. What a neat surprise!! I had been keeping in touch with him by sending care packages, so it was so great to see him in person as well as thank him for serving our country!!
Spending time with Darci and Emma at Logan's baseball game on a beautiful summer evening...
Cute little Emma

Heading out to the pitcher's mound...
The game went into overtime with Logan scoring the winning run!! What a fun game to watch!!

It's so fun having young neighborhood kids as part of our lives!! We are blessed!! :)
