Memorial Day weekend started off with a dirt and worm cake to celebrate Randy’s birthday. The kids loved the idea of eating dirt and worms and it was delicious. Then on Memorial Day, to continue a Balmforth tradition Randy and Drew ran in a 1 mile race and I ran a 5K on Grosse Ile. Drew and I both beat our times from last year. It is always a good feeling to be improving! We also went swimming at our friends pool and picked strawberries from our garden. And yesterday the kids and I discovered this robin nest in the tree in our front yard. Drew wanted me to get the eggs down so he could looked at them. I told him that was not a good idea. In the second picture of the nest you can see the birds used a Ziploc bag when they created the nest. Very resourceful!

Good for Drew! What a little athlete in the making. That's great that it's warm enough to go swimming. Jack took a dip in his wading pool the other day and couldn't stop shivering for 30 minutes after he got out. We are so excited to see you guys! I want the recipe for that dirt cake. Looks like you can't really mess it up--that's my kind of cake!
It is so fun to hear what you guys have been doing. Love all your posts!
Looks like a good time! We were in Driggs for memorial day where it rained and the wind blew most of the time. blah. Cute fam!
Your kiddos are getting so big! I can't believe how tall Drew looks and the girls look just like you!
I love all the pics of your family! Your girls are so beautiful Jen! And you look fabulous! Happy birthday to Drew too! Tanner turns 6 in a couple of weeks and I can hardly believe it!
Your kids are getting so big! I heard you are heading out this way this summer. I hope we get to see you!
