Bella's Practice Lunch!

All the kindergarten classes got to do a 'practice lunch' at school since next year they will be eating lunch there everyday! :-o



They sang a few songs for us


Bella's class~the class of......2022!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!














Awesome popsicles!

For Mother's Day Paul got me (and the girls)a Zoku popsicle maker from William-Sonoma. It is awesome. I use 100% fruit juice and you keep the container in the freezer and you can make 9 popsicles in 3 batches and each batch only takes 7-9 minutes to freeze so the kids get to watch them freeze and then eat them right away!!! You can do so much with it! What a great gift!












MOther's Day 2010

Every year we start of Mother's day at the Kammers where we have brunch for Nonny. It was good food & good company!


Bella is in this bag!!

Hail Storm...in May!

We had a hail storm in May! We already had the garden planted so we had to cover it for the frost. Luckily, everything is thriving except for the watermelon/cantaloupe plants that did not die d/t the hail but d/t lack of room to spread out!






Broadview Heights park

We went to the Broadview Heights park for Gwen's end of the year picnic with her class. We had never been before and have already been back since! The girls loved it!




This was a fave!

and this too~!



Our 1st Garden

We have been growing tomatoes and strawberries for years in deck boxes but we have always to put a garden in. Paul's Oma taught him so much about gardening and it was something they enjoyed talking about together.
I wish we would have made ours bigger!
We planted: big tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, tons of strawberries, hot peppers, sweet peppers, green beans, onions, garlic, parsley, cilantro, chives, pineapple sage, dill, cucumbers, cantaloupe and watermelon. The last 2 were just purely experimental. We knew they needed alot of room and 2 of them already died. At least now we know for next year NOT to plant those. We have already been enjoying the fresh herbs and some small strawberries. The tomatoes are already on some of the plants~those will be next to enjoy!







Bella helped with the whole process





I think bella is giving Paul orders at this point.....




Trampoline fun!
