A Beautiful Day
The weather was great for a walk today. We went down the road to our neighbors' houses to see their goats, chickens, and ducks.
The kids brought grass for the one goat who can make it to the fence (the other one is too sickly) and bread for the ducks (apparently the ducks aren't eating gluten...only the chickens were partaking of this snack).
We ended up in our backyard - laying in the hammock enjoying the fragrance of the newly blooming lilacs and the leisure of the afternoon.
Matthew, of course, had to do a little exploring. He found a worm and other bugs under the rotting wood.
Trying to move the large rock proved to be a little more difficult than moving the logs!
Emilia was giving receipts and stamps in her "office". It ceased being a "house" last summer.
Here's my compost pile (I made the crooked crate compost bin...sorry to my carpenter dad who would be shaking his head at this hack job! Ha!) in case I ever decide to be a gardener. That'll be the day! ;)
Tommy (who turns one TOMORROW!) was enjoying the day and looking as cute as ever. :)
I love days like today. Relaxed and restful. So glad to have this time with our kids!
