The past few days in photos

Poor Ezzie gazed at the other kids jumping on the trampoline





It's been beautiful & we've spent a lot of time outside







Ice cream on the back porch after dinner has also been a fun ritual!



Thursday Jen drove from Philly with her four kids for lunch & playtime





Poor Abby was cold



Hannah & Addison were so happy to see each other. When Jen (who just moved here two weeks ago) pulled up to Ruth's house & Hannah saw Addison outside she excitedly exclaimed, "Look mommy, Addison moved here, too!




Clay & Ezra, our little guys



Addison & Karine in their tinkerbell pajamas!



Yesterday was Karine's first day of preschool. When Addison saw Karine in her polkadot dress she was very excited & went & put on her polkadot dress, too!




In the evening we went over to John & Stephanie's for a fun pizza dinner with them & their kids



This morning the oldest girls helped make pancakes for breakfast!
