This June, we were able to pick blueberries at my VTer's home. She likes to let the kids pick. They have such a great time!
Here is my little diva. She acquired these cute glasses in St. Louis on our trip there early in the month. She is really growing up fast.
Ah, the boys, THEY ate more than they picked and then ate most of what I had picked on the way home. They both had a great time.
The diva again. She will be eight this year and got her own set of scriptures, including a carrying case and a small hymnal. They all love to sing and follow along in their own hymn book.
She was also showing off her new church sandals. Very cool!
The zoo picture. This was the second trip to the zoo for the kids. The first time, they didn't get there early enough to go and do the free things, like petting the sting rays. For some reason, it is a real thrill for them. It is somewhat lost on me, but, sea creatures don't hold my interest very much.
And here they are trying their hands at petting the slimy little things. They all were able to touch one at least once so the extra trip to the zoo was a success!
Oh boy, and how they do grow. I think the stair step pictures are so fun and really show their growth spurts. I try to get one every six months or so. I sure do love these kids. They bring us a great amount of joy.

Wow - they are so grown up!! I think it must be a kid thing to touch any animal they can get their hands on. Hazel will pet just about anything (including the bugs that find their way into the house - ew). I'm quite sure she'd love to pet fish if we ever went somewhere that would let her. Thanks for posting the pictures - Hazel can say all the names now (though she's struggling a bot with Elias). By the way, nice shot of Mom rocking the multi-color visor and fanny-pack. :)
