Party! Party!

Thank goodness for Christopher Columbus....

It was "big" Ellen's birthday so we all (Mike, Seamus, Sue, Ellen, Stephanie and 12 kids) had lunch and birthday cake at Sue's. Finn came to this party in morning, went to his friend Thomas's party and returned for another round at Sue's.

We went home, put the Fuzz to bed and were inspired to make a scarecrow with our neighbors.

Mom's bottom and Dad's top make a nice combo, don't they?

Ended the day with a Giles/McNeela/Murray pizza party and a few rousing games of Kick the Can, Cops and Robbers and football.

And now everyone is fast asleep.

Leaves!

Hours of fun, all weekend long.

Pigs In Mud

This incident happened two weeks ago. I didn't realize I forgot to post the photos.

Needless to say, this did not occur in my backyard....

This required a shower for rinsing and then a bath for soaking.

I'm not sure the boots will ever be usable again.

Seamus told me it was the most fun he's ever had.

Rainy Summer

Rainy day summer fun...pretend you are skiing and camping. Strange birds.
