Turtles and Cousins!



We found a turtle on the road in our neighborhood and while he may have been able to make it all the way across we still picked him up and brought him home.  I figured he could hang out in the backyard and the kids could watch him move around the yard.  It didn't take long to figure out that was a bad idea.


Julius could not keep his hands off of him.  We decided to take him to the woods across the street and set him free.  I'm sure he was grateful!


Aunt Katie, Galina and Johnny came to visit for about a week in May.  We had some sunny days so the sprinkler was in use quite a bit!




What else are cousins for??


Being sneaky with the bucket of water.



Johnny and Lydia ate their fill of freeze pops!




We found an inchworm!


He's a cute little guy, huh?





We had a great time with our visitors!!  Especially when they paint tree murals on our walls! :)
Wouldn't you do the same if you had a huge, ugly, mustard yellow wall in your living room?!  The tree is now a family tree with pictures of our all our wonderful family!!
