The Back Yard

Mark was right, very little sky can be seen through the leaves now. It's amazing how fast spring sprung and already it's summer. And we are so grateful for the shade!

I only got this one shot of our cute Sargent Tina crabapple in bloom (front yard), and now those white blossoms are withered (though they are exciting little trees to watch in all their stages - there will be red berries forming eventually). We're having lots of fun outside these days: of course there's endless soccer and the sandbox (and sweeping the sand back into the sandbox), and also learning baseball, gardening/weeding, water fights, chalk drawing, lots of popsicles, and the slide...

Charlie often has these horrible landings, though usually not aided in their trajectory by Isaac, as shown. For some reason, it's still his new favorite thing (as well as just standing on the top of the slide and jumping into my arms). Brave boy!
