This weekend we did a lot of yard work. We've been so busy that it's been sitting there for a long time. So, we spent a lot of time Friday through Sunday working on weeds. It's getting better, though there's still a lot to do. I did manage to snap a few pictures.
Doesn't David just have the CUTEST smile ever?!
This is a picture of the workshop that Dad built a few years ago. It's almost as big as our house! (ok, not really, but it's really big)
Compacting the weeds in the truck so we could fit more in.
He's just so cute that I had to take more than one picture. This is him standing next to the weed pile that we made after the truck was jam-packed.
This is Serena (our dog) playing with the neighbor's dog, Belle. They just run up and down the fence for 15 minutes.
Jonathan was having a lot of fun jumping up and down.
This is the new gate that Dad built for the side of the house out of an old, broken bunk bed. The one that we had was falling apart. (literally) He'll paint this one, of corse.
And of course, another picture of Thumper.
On Sunday we went to church. It was SO nice to see all of our friends again. Our family has missed 3 weeks of church. 2 of them were because of being gone, and Mother's Day we were at my grandma's house. So it was so nice to go to church again.
This morning we got the alpacas shorn. Lacy, (our shearer) came with her dad and a friend of hers. I missed the shearing, because I went to the store with Mom, but Hannah took some pictures.
This is Manny, the 2-year-old cria (that's what alpaca babies are called) before he was shorn.
Right to left: Lacy, Aaron, and Mr. Robinson
Sally and Caroline. Sally's the mom, Caroline's the 1-year-old cria.
Look at how ridiculous Manny looked after he was shorn. I'm glad I'm not an alpaca. I don't think I'd go anywhere until winter when my fleece would have grown back.
Apparently the had to carry Sally because she was being so stubborn.
This picture makes me laugh. Manny is the most curious animal I've ever seen. He'll check out everything.
Manny and Sally fussing because they are separated from Caroline.
Grilling:
Dad and Mom made the most amazing Memorial Day dinner ever. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, shells and cheese, beans, coleslaw, and chips. (Really healthy, isn't it?)
Annabeth is really interesting when we're taking pictures of her. She'll say 'cheese', but unless you say "Annabeth, smile!" She doesn't. It's very interesting.
And of course, another picture of David.
Hannah LOVES to make faces when you're taking a picture, and this is one of them.
Mom and Dad eating while watching "League of Grateful Sons" by Vision Forum. It seemed like a very appropriate Memorial Day video.
I FINALLY got a good picture of me. All of the other ones that I have are with someone else. This is the first good one of just me.
Well, that's all for now. Hope you have a blessed Memorial Day!
Kayla
That is a really good picture of you, Kayla!! I know how hard it can be to actually BE in a photo when you're the one taking all the pictures. :-) We watched League of Grateful Sons, too!! Great movie, isn't it?
