Random Things

He was pretty excited for his half birthday donut!
 Last weekend we rented a chipper to take care of our enormous pile of sticks and branches.  I spent the day helping with the chipper, but mostly praying no one would die or get their arm chewed off.  Sheesh, that thing is a scary beast.  And the whole time I kept thinking, "you can put the girl in the country, but you can't put the country in the girl!"
 Madeline and Ethan also played in a piano recital.
 They both did so well.  Such beautiful piano players.
 Ice cream is good.
And as a funny side story, a few days ago Madeline asked me when we were going to go to Utah this summer.  Then she said, "We should go for three weeks at the least and moving at the most!"  Ha!  Her siblings all agreed with her.  I just kept my mouth shut.  They talk like that on a pretty regular basis.  They have for the entire time we've been here.  Madeline then added, "But...we won't move...and we have friends here anyway..."  Yes we do.  And they sure are wonderful.  I like knowing that there are wonderful people everywhere.
