Mormor and morfar are here!!!

 And with mormor and Morfar comes the Swedish candy!!! 😂 That is when the whole family starts acting like little children! 



When mormor and Morfar are here it means a lot of beach time as well. Except for the first and last day of their visit it was great weather for beach and water activities. 





Since Gabriel and Rafael land put their room they got to build a fort in the playroom to use as their bedroom. 


Marlee spent one night in their fort as well :-)


Gabriel had his piano recital while they were here. He did great. Video is coming… This is Gabriel and his piano teacher. 


People from both our coops came to rock springs one day so we had great fun floating down the spring river!!






Medieval games, beach days and …

 Fun times as coops are done for the school year and we see friends at events and the beach. The spring was wonderful this year, with very pleasant temperatures but now the heat is coming…

Our end of the year field trip with blue oak was to the Medieval games in Orlando. I did take pictures of the jousting and other fun things but somehow they got lost… The event included a good meal, ther you need to eat with your hands, nothing that bothered the kids 😂


Beach day with friends…







Walk in the woods. This is a giant root of a fallen tree. 



We also saw a manatee in the river. 




Noah going to aquatica woth friends.

Coop Graduation and 80’s bowling



End of the school year at Blue Oak. Not end of the school year at home but a fun ceremony. Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted some of the pictures so there is no  class picture for Gabriel and Noah  







Publix, where Marlee is working, had a fund raiser for special Olympics so all the employees got to go bowling. They had a 80’s theme :-)

Beach, Proms and boat excursion

Marlee was lucky enough to get to go to two proms before school ended this year. Well school at home is not yet over but coop is. The rest of us got to join him for one of the proms and just left early to let the teens have some time without siblings :-) Unfortunately, the pictures are all mixed up but I hope you will still enjoy them  



Beach day with surfer friends

Boat ride to explore Cort Matanza. It ended up a little more adventurous than we expected as we had to walk on clam shells in the river and I fit both my feet. We still had a good time!









Kids tubing on the way back
