Mother's Day treats.

Mother's Day is about getting family together to celebrate all the mom's we love.

With us, that usually revolves around a meal and some treats.

Which also means working together making those special treats.

Ketchup time.

 Earlier in the week we got to watch a small snail doing it's thing.

It was a very active snail, having to be put back on the towel several times before we could get it measured and photographed.

 Sunday found us playing our first fairly dreary weather soccer game.

 Although wet and muddy, or maybe because it was wet and muddy, the girls had a great time.

Daughter, in white hat, in action.

 After our game we went to watch cousin play.

 Umbrella and hot cocoa make for fine viewing.

Our attempts at being soccer hooligans.

We need practice.

Ketchup time - Easter and Tartan Days

Between Easter eggs and Highland dress, April is a very colorful month.

 Happy after a visit from the main bunny.

 Decked out for church.

 While waiting for Tartan Days to begin, we thought we would get a photo with our good friend Daniel Boone.
(Daniel forgot to keep holding her hand as she did a spin)

 Waiting for the parade to begin.

 Start of the parade.

 The first pipes arrive.

 John Ford Highland band.

 Sheltie rescues on parade.

 Each clan carried their own banner.

 Scottie rescues on parade.

 Caledonia pipe band.

 Trying on Highland hats.

 I think I saw this hansom guy in that 'Brave' movie.

 Bow and arrow maker.

 Replica viking long boat.

I don't know what shaved ice has to do with Scotland, but she loved it.
