May 2015

Hadrian officially became a Star Child at his school and was very proud of his 'little one'  it even has a tail, just like him.


We celebrated Mothers Day at the Farmers market - can you tell we have a bit of an obsession over bees at the moment?


 Patrick got a bicycle built for two for his birthday.


These three are from the annual fund raiser at Percy's school.

 Above is his class performing, and below is his idea for face paining.


Hadrian got to be the dunkee in the dunk tank!

Dante has decided he does not like going on family bike rides if he has to walk/run.  But if he can sit in my basket, he's perfectly happy.

These are defenders of the castle!

And this is Trajan, playing Artemis like a guitar.  Hard to believe, but the cat doesn't seem to mind at all.


 Percy was so proud, he caught a drone, and even petted it.  Turns out, it was a worker bee after all.  Apparently he was gentle enough as he didn't get stung!

Below is a picture from our last inspection, it was so interesting to see the larva in different stages of development.



 The motorcycle started!  It didn't run for long, but having it put back together and working on this part seems like a big step in the right direction.


Summer is almost here!  This was the first night sleeping in the back yard.


 We trimmed the wings of our new chicks in hopes that they would stay in their pen.  Their response is to now walk on the fence trying to decide where the grass really is greener (or the worms longer as the chicken version may go).  So far, they're not going the wrong way, it's really just a sidewalk over there, may be quite the surprise for a passing pedestrian.
