welcome dexter!

we have a new addition to our family! a baby girl...dexter! she is eight weeks old. we brought her home today from the humane society in st. cloud. she is slowly adjusting to the dog and the boys, and has yet to meet the other two cats but she sure does love mom and dad. :) below is a video of her playing. enjoy!

Today was the boys last day of school and so they went to the school farm with their classes. They loved it! It started out with a puppet show and then they were able to go around and meet and pet all the animals. Then they went through and pretended to be farmers and did all the chores. In the end they were able to sell all the things they collected at the "farmers market" and were able to trade in their money for a snack...both picked granola bars. :)

making cookies!

grandpa made the boys some cute hats.

the boys made some wonderful oatmeal cookie bars. :)
