Planting, Paint, Storms, and more...

The girls helped me plant seeds this last week.
 We are so excited to see them grow....Evie had
to check the seeds the day after we planted them:)
 The kids have been having fun with the kittens.
 They have been having "kitten races".  
The kids have way more fun than the kittens.
 The kids got ready to paint the inside of the playhouse with us.
The kids had a great time and paint was a flying!
 Zach did most of the painting, while I tried to 
keep the kids on task.
 This is Evie's first stroke and the neatest:)
 We got most of it finished and ran out of paint. 
I will post pictures when it's finished.
 Sunday morning at 3am, 
Zach and I awoke to what sounded like an explosion. 
When we looked outside, 
the power pole was on the ground and all the lines on the ground.

This was the culprit. 
A tree fell on the line in the woods and snapped the lines and the pole.  
 The crews came pretty quick.
 The kids got to eat their breakfast on the porch
while watching all the excitement.
 They had to bring the crawler machine in to get the new pole in.  
 It's fixed and the powers back on...I'm a happy camper.
 Last night, Oscar stalked a squirrel with his bow...
came up empty, but had a great time.
I lit some candles, got my book, 
and poured a glass of Summer Shandy
on my porch.  
It was a great end to the weekend.
