This week….our goldfish died, we’re not sure what happened there. Snail is still alive. Every couple of days we’re sure it’s dead because it’s just lying on the bottom, then the next day it’s fine. “Think I’m dead once, shame on me….think I’m dead twice, shame on you!”
Declan began a Lego class at our friend’s house, which was loads of fun. The theme is “transportation troubles” and the kids like assembling the various vehicles, etc. By the way, D is actually a size *6* so forget what I said last week about size 5. Size 5 was SO last week.
On Sunday, we hosted our first neighborhood gathering of families with young children, “DuBois Road Buddies.” I’ve sniffed out all of these families on our road, around ten of us, and invited them over for a seasonal craft, snack, playtime, and regular meet and greet. The weather was beautiful, and the families that came seemed to have a good time. I host so many different groups of people, it finally occurred to me to create something around the kids who live right on our own street!
I’m taking the kids to Cape May for a few days this week to meet up with Gemma and Papa down there.
D and Liv using the pole-picker to reach the apples at the top of our tree. All told, we got around 250 pounds of amazing organic Cortland apples from our tree. We picked every single one! libertyviewfarm.biz
Q gets cozy with the baby goats at the farm!

Something we’ve been doing a lot of lately – making cider!
