Here are a few scenes from our celebration of Evans 1st birthday.
Cheryl injured her finger in a sort of freak accident. There is no pain, but she will need to wear a splint for up to eight weeks, and there is a slight possibility she will need surgery. It is called "mallet finger" and is a torn ligament. 
HEY! Does anyone want some free straw?
A week after it was palnted, the grass is up sufficiently to rake off the straw--and at least from a distance, the lawn looks green!

Today was the day for seeding the yard where we put new top soil. Aaron arrived in time to help spread the straw over the seed as a deterrent to birds who would like to eat the seeds, and as a mulch to help keep the soil moist. Aaron is an excellent straw spreader! Now we water and wait for the seeds to sprout.
A visit to the Creation Museum would be a great opportunity for anyone who wishes to find out more about the Biblical account of Creation. It is located in Petersburg, KY just over the river from Cincinnati. 
It is a 70,000-square foot "walk through Bible history." You can check it out http://www.creationmuseum.org/
We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. It is worth the trip!
Thanks to Steve & Faye for the guest passes!
