Ponies






We found some ponies on Assateague Island, and the girls got to feed them. I don't know how useful it is to walk two steps ahead of the pony and pick up the grass it is about to eat and hand it to the pony, but that scheme worked for the kids.

Annie on the Beach


Annie also had a good time on the beach, and got pretty wet in the waves. And then cold. And then went back for a change of clothes, and stayed dry. Not becuase she knew any better, but because Jen kept her away from the water.

Catching Sand Crabs



Zoe and Chloe spent some time catching sand crabs.

Kites



We saw some kites while we were in Ocean City.

Jen and Susie


Jen and Susie at the beach in Ocean City.

Snake


Orange Julia and William found this snake in the attic.

Giant Cat


William moved in to the doll house the girls got from .... maybe the Easter bunny? I'm not sure where the doll house came from.

Minivan


To the delight of Zoe and Annie, but less so to Jen, Tim bought a 2007 Honda Odyssey. Sensible? Maybe, maybe not. Eight passengers capable? Yes.

Zoe


Just an updated picture of Zoe's face.

Wubbzy


Annie made this...um, something...which kind of looks like Wubbzy.

Kittens





The kittens are starting to gnaw on each other and wrestle a bit. And attack the feet and ankles of any intruders.

Annie the Clown


Annie is getting ready to join the circus.

Easter Brunch




Went to macgregor's restaurant with Jen's parents for Easter brunch. Tim had a prime rib omelet, which is at least as good as it sounds.

Research



Jen's mom is involved in a research project of sorts which is looking in to why kids are heavier than they used to be. Could it be the new, improved cookies she is handing out? Or the cupcakes. Further research is required. Tim ate some cupcakes in the name of science. And some cookies. Results are inconclusive.

Easter time at church






Various crafts going at church for Easter.

Easter egg hunt






We hope Mr. Anderson has a good sense of humor about folks doing an Easter Egg Hunt over his grave.

The sign


This sign caused some trouble with Tyler, a boy Jen watches a couple days a week. His feeling were very hurt. He is in to cars.

Posing





The girls are still working on taking pictures and being subjects, but they're coming along.

Pull-up bar



The girls are trying out the pull-up bar.
