Cookies Anyone?
The 'Kisling Kids Kookie Kompany" is officially open for business! Cameron and Katie are baking cookies and selling them to earn money for church camp. They passed out flyers, have been baking for one week, and have earned a whopping $85.oo already! (Each dozen cookies or loaf of sweet bread costs $2.50, so they're not robbing people blind as you may have suspected.) They are having lots of fun with this, and my only role is to scrape the cookies off the tray. It's fun watching them team together on a project. They've laughed, made messes, made 2 mistakes (which were easily fixed thank goodness!), argued, worked on people skills, learned more about fractions and adding money, learned about the responsibility of having a "job", and lo and behold, they still want to do it again next year!

Memorable Moments of Spring 2007

It's been quite awhile since I posted anything. I think I've given up on trying to be profound, or poetic, or eloquent,or cute or whatever else. From now on, you get what you get and you don't throw a fit, OK? So there!

Here are some pictures of our springtime....




Natalie's 4th birthday.....























Cameron's 10th birthday...(that's a 'swimming pool' cake in case you were wondering)







4 generations of Kisling men. Reid's 92 yr. old grandpa came to visit.


















A visit to the Tulip fields.






Easter Sunday ..........................




Rosalie turns 6 (Did you notice? No more glasses!)

I wish I could master the art of posting pictures and captions where I want them! Argh! :)
