More art from Luke

It's spring break and the boys are busily writing stories, making puppets, sketching new flowers in the yard, building forts, and creating endless art.
Luke wanted to put these up today.
Cleaning out the garage for our soon-to-be preschool playroom/art studio/secret loft hideaway....

Happy Spring

Spring is here.
Genevieve is excited about all the new blooms. She wants to smell everything.
She asks for a "Mee - mee" when it's time to go to sleep. It's her word for blanket.
Luke's history banquet was Friday night where he portrayed Hannibal the Conqueror...it was his first speech and he was great. We especially liked the ending when he drank his suicidal poison and fell down dead on the stage. Dinner was complete with barley soup, Greek salad, bread, figs, cheese and grapes.
Peaceful weekend filled with gardening plans....

WEEKEND IN ST. LOUIS

Great weekend in St. Louis.
Zoo, Missouri Botanical Gardens, City Museum, & picnic by the arch.
Boys were especially amazed by the city museum....best place to play.
Genevieve became quite attached to the elephants and penguins at the zoo.
