The end of school year visit from the local Zoo to Seamus' class. Izabel and Matt joined in the fun.
 |
| Got to love the reaction of the teacher in the background. |
They also had a bit of a field day. This is good since every year Izabel has missed hers because it always gets cancelled for rain and mud.

| Semaus and Ms. Molly |

| Izabel and Virginia (rabbit) |

Home Depot build and grow project. This one was an ice-cream truck
Seamus and Mom went to a birds of prey presentation at the library. All of these guys are rescues. One was a falcon that was no good for hunting because he would not shut-up. He scared away all prey so he ended up at the shelter. Seamus loved it.

| Virginia - apparently when you put a rabbit on their back they relax. Bunny coma. |
 |
| More rabbit coma. |
 |
| Seamus and Izabel hang out while I get a haircut. |
 |
| Flooding in our parking area. It did make it into the garage but no damage for us. |
 |
| Father's day/Mom's birthday adventure - Meeting Spongebob. |
 |
| Izabel wanted to keep monsters at bay. It is a cunning plan. |
We visited Sterling too! Picked up a new pet - a praying mantis. Yes s/he is still alive and will take out a miller moth with vengeance. We also have a jumping spider. Spiderman is his/her name (I have not checked or asked either for the s/he determination) and s/he also takes out a miller moth every couple of days.

| Seamus and his bud Tristan. |
 |
| Matt, Lexi, and Izabel playing in the pool while Seamus dangles his toes. |
The kids and Dad took on a tie-dye project. They used up all the dyes in the kit (props to Aunt Marie as a great Christmas present) by dying anything that had a stain so it can still be used - t-shirts and a few carrying sacks.
 |
| Birthday boy Seamus gets to ride in a booster seat! In the Lady no less. |
Izabel had to do a meat quality assurance training to show rabbits for 4-H. It was in the exciting town of Simla. Simla is 100 years old and apparently you can get chickens slaughtered there; that is about all there is to Simla.
 |
| Learning how to administer shots properly. I have no idea when this knowledge will come in handy for her. |
 |
| Rabbit board. |
