Daddy reading in the living room (I happened to catch a quite moment between the wrestling match that tended to start every few pages or so.) Notice our wild new furniture! Next to the chair is the entertainment center- see how it beautifully hides the plasma screen Monster!
Aggie and Marcus wrestling in the living room. (Notice the brown suede- the couch and the loveseat are this color and very soft- i love it, except that the boogers show up really well!) Each kid likes to have "Marcus time" now, which usually consists of rolling around with him on the carpet. As you can probably imagine, this does not go well with all three of them trying to do it at once- it has now become a privelage for the well- behaved.
This is one of Marcus's favorite new pasttimes- saying hello to Otis. He can easily pull himself up to peek out the window (this is the storm door off the kitchen facing the back yard.) I have to be careful to make sure the door latches- one day he was trying to crawl right outside!
We stopped for a snack in the "memory garden" by the church the other day. Lorraine was the only one that felt like taking pictures. It has been so hot here we usually try to get out to the park before nine! That way by ten we can seal ourselves up in our air conditioning until evening.
This is another shot of the memory garden- it is absolutely beautiful!
At the church playground- as soon as I took that picture I thought "my mom's going to love this one." One of those cheesy sister pictures that we can retake every year- Amy, you understand!
Marcus wonders why in the world he is out in the heat during his morning naptime.....
The city girls meet their first snake! I am glad they got to meet a dead one first! They were quite amazed- Lorraine got very wide-eyed and said "I didn't know there were snakes around here...."
First rain dance!The weather here is much different- Josh says because we do not have lake-effect like in MI. We get sudden downpours, then sunshine, then more downpours.
The girls get a kick out of playing in the grass (this is in our backyard between us and the church and cemetery). Obviously they forget about the threat of snakes every now and then!

Looks like fun! Especially the playing in the rain. Marcus is getting so big looks like he is really wanting to take off after the older siblings. Miss you and Love you!!!!!!!
