Week 21

Look at that corn grow!

JH Spring Concert tonight, I made the boy cousins pose together afterwards. I don't know why I didn't make the girl cousin join them. The JH band was SO good. Their teacher is really challenging them with difficult music.

I told my boss that today was National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day and he looked at me and my desk and said "So, where's the cookies?" Well…since I didn't find out until this morning, I couldn't do anything about it. Tomorrow, though, is National Education Bosses' Day (or something like that…) so the secretaries are bringing treats. I had 2 really ripe bananas, so these are actually Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies. Yum.

Another awesome cell phone picture from my husband: this is my father-in-law, checking out the little baby soybeans. They are pretty tiny, yet, but they are there. They finished planting the beans today, yippee!

I expect I'll have lots of baseball pictures over the next month. The boys went out to hit a few balls, and I was a little surprised at how close to the house a few of them got hit. I jokingly said "If you break a window, I'll be really mad." About 2 hits later, Joe actually HIT THE HOUSE. It was just a few feet away from our big wall of windows. Yikes. They are kind of mad: they are now making hits that would have been home runs (by a long way…) last year on the softball diamond. This year, they have to move up to the high school baseball diamond.

This is Will, after telling me that if he or Joe break a window on the house, he'll pay for it with his MLB salary.
