Moving Up Ceremony

Paul had been going to a preschool program since he was a baby - now it's time to move on. After a year of kindergarten he's headed to...kindergarten! His school had a wonderful moving up ceremony.

Summer Cousin Fun

Summer is for playing with water. And with cousins!


Getting our water soakers ready.
 

Let's see how Asher does with it.
 

Take a break from getting wet for a quick pose.
 

Back to the action!
 

Jacob and Beren would rather stay inside.  

A Hiking We Will Go

When we're not hiking up big mountains, we sometimes like to hike the Fells around us. Do you like our hiking sticks?


Here we are at Wright's Tower in June

Beautiful view from Wright's Tower.

Grandma reads a story

There's enough room for three here, right?

We love Memorial Day because the parade comes to us!

He comes the parade.

Wave that flag
 

No more photos - I just want my hot chocolate.  

New Hampshire Party Time!

Our little cousin turned one. So we headed up to the Children's Museum of New Hampshire to celebrate!

Our boys like crafts.

Crabble

By Paul A. Weil

Once upon a time, long, long, long ago, there lived a good monster named Schmitz. And he lived in a giant kingdom. But one morning a giant thunderstorm came into focus. And the people were terrified by the thunderstorm. But next Tuesday, the thunderstorm was gone. And they lived so happy and but another morning a giant good crab came. He wanted to live in a house, but people didn't want the crab in their city. But the crab really wanted to be in that city. No other city could he live in. He searched every town, but none wanted the crab. So he made a house in that city. And they lived happily ever after.

The End

Ocean Castle

By Paul A. Weil

Once upon a time, long long long ago, there lived a kingdom with lots of people. A king and queen lived in the castle. They were so happy they had so many people. But one morning, a monster came in their town. But the mommy was too big, so they couldn't kill it. So the other morning, a good wizard came to town and killed it.

This is a picture of the castle

The en...wait.

The kingdom was free from the bad guy. The bad guy was the monster and was killed, so the end.

That's the whole story.

Red Leprechaun

By Paul A. Weil

Well, the leprechaun, well, the wild ones, well, the wild ones, are red. And the red is covered by snow. Some people might think they're just walking pieces of snow. They're female. The other kinds only come in an important holiday.

Frank is the one I'm talking about. He has no eyes, no nose, and no mouth. And that's the whole thing. They live in the forest. The print paint on shoes and print newspapers.

Once upon a time, loooooooong, long ago, they lived in the kingdom (before they lived in a forest). They lived on the planet tick and they decided to go on the planet Earth. They saw many trees and they saw many mountains. They climbed up all the mountains and when they came to the kingdom, they were so glad to meet their people. But one morning, what happened? A big, bad monster came to Earth and tried to attack the people, but the people's army was too big. The monster was dead because she was in jail and there was no food.

The End.

Florida Vacation 2013 - Day 2

While Beren enjoyed Costume World, the Weil men enjoyed Flamingo Gardens.


Joss is all smiles. Kinda.

 Joss and Paul are both leading. And marching. "Hut, two, three, four."

Paul is stalked by a Snowy Egret.

Shawn's favorite animal of the day: Spider (species: Asteracantha Cancriformis)

The peacock will pose; the wild animals will not.

Everybody grimace!

Gator bait

Paul and the tiny owl

Dinner with the fam - Mmmmm, Chinese food. Now, where is the noodles and cottage cheese?

So...what are we doing tomorrow? 

Florida Vacation 2013 - day 1

We had a lazy morning, watched "Puss In Boots," went to The Girls to see the exotic birds and pick strawberries, and in the afternoon went SWIMMING at the POOL!

Paul kept going up to strangers and introducing himself and his "whole family," and Joss liked holding on to the stair and letting his legs float.
