Livin' the cottage life

Life has been a bit crazy, so, with no real plans for the May long weekend, we decided to enjoy our home and the cottage life that surrounds it.
There were movies... We introduced the kids to Anne of Green Gables.  I loved sharing this with them.  Hadley had lip quivering cries for when Diana and Anne were no longer allowed to be friends.  Then when Matthew passed, she had full understanding that people get old and their bodies die as they don't work as well as they once did.  No tears at all.  
Saturday Hadley and I went for a pedicure.  It was lovely.  
Sunday we had Melissa and Cailum drop in for a surprise visit.  Again nice, as the kids play so well together.  We also spent some time with Matthew next door, and there were bike rides, the lawn tractor got an oil change, and the hose came out for both cleaning and cooling.
We set up our tent and camped in the backyard after a campfire complete with roasted hotdogs and marshmallows that found graham crackers and chocolate.
Both kids love s'mores as do I!
It was supposed to rain all day today but nothing... so, we went to Hadley's baseball practice and Easton's baseball game.  
Lilacs are in full bloom and the fragrance is one of my favourites!  I am excited for summer!
