Family Friday: On Saturday

I really don't think there is anything in the world cuter than this
Be still my heart x2
Sophie had a good soccer season.  She doesn't get as much practice as her teammates.  The poor girl was born into a sports deprived family.  For her level of experience she really grew a lot.  Her final game she had a lot more ball time than ever before and she really rose to the challenge.
Ben asked me to take his picture and this is what he did for the camera.  I am not sure what it is.  It was one of those moments when you think of the people all around you and try to figure out if you are supposed to laugh and say oh isn't he funny!  Or if I am supposed to pretend I am not related to him.  I am kidding of course, I will own up to being the sweet kooky boy any day, no matter what he is doing.
Jacob turned 6
Hey look I have a daughter!
The grossest cupcakes I have ever made.  We ate some because it was Jacob's birthday, but we gave the rest to the chickens.  They were totally not worth the calories.
This is how bad they were.  Noah didn't eat them.  He just played with them.
Played with an amazing level of vigor.
Aaron saw the wreckage and declared, "Thank goodness we didn't give him a pet hamster!
Hours later I went into the bathroom and found this frosting hand print.
I told you I would take more pictures of Sophie.  It is still difficult I must say.
I love this one of her doing puppy training.  I love the look of her in her ballet stuff, up on the well head, the two puppies standing at attention

Ben was standing next to the feeder when a chickadee landed.  Ben was amazed to see it so close.
He immediately grabbed some seed and stood still attempting to lure one onto his hand.
Come on birds, land!
Hello...is anyone there...please, I have seed...
Oh look a.....oh well Ben.  Maybe next time.
Remember I said it was difficult?
I kind of wish they would invent an invisible camera so I could take pictures without them knowing I am taking pictures
So there is the family this week (perhaps more than this week, but who's checking) from Craftsbury Cottage.
