Hopeful

Our dwarf lemon tree is actually growing lemons for the first time!  I will be amazed if we actually harvest our own lemons, especially since we are pretty clueless.  It's been fun to watch.  I hope this story has a good ending! 

Our FirstMovie

Brian and I created a video for the kids and we posted it on youtube.  It's of them riding their bikes around pretending to be Danny MacAskill.  Don't know who Danny is?  Our kids love, love, love his videos.  You should google him!  It's our first ever movie - so it's kinda rough, but so fun! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5kgfg6WxYE&feature=youtu.be

It Pays to Be Kind

Haley needed a little motivation to help her treat her family nicely and so in a desperate moment I dangled the biggest carrot I could think of and promised if she could be nice to us for 15 days she could get her ears pierced!  It was not an easy task for her, and 2 days had to be re-done, but she did it!  She is suuuuuuper happy with her new earings and we're super happy that she was nice.  Let's hope the kindness sticks around!
