A few basketball tournament pics to wrap up the season:
Brock sat so patiently for each timeout or end-of-quarter whistle so that he could shoot hoops.
Happy Birthday, Brock! A doughnut cake stacked high with fried croissants (his favorite):

Easter
Brock's Easter gift to the girls was an egg hunt with various prizes (all of which he donated).
He first had to lock the girls in the bathroom so they wouldn't peek. When it was time, they had to exit the bathroom at exactly the same time. Not sure why Sophie was wearing her winter coat. ???
Goatie Girls
We have been letting the Goatie Girls free range daily. They take shifts with the dogs and have really enjoyed the opportunity to eat various things that they don't find in their stable.
Dad with the Chainsaw
They are so fun in that whenever you run, they will chase you. They will also come whenever you call them and follow you around.
Eggs with a Purpose
This year, we only dyed enough eggs to make potato salad and deviled eggs with. In years past, the eggs would end up being eaten by the dogs which led to some really smelly situations.

Bargman Easter
They were all about the PRIZE eggs!
Beautifully Painted Sky
Chopped Junior -- With a little bit of sass!
They made this one all on their own (with the exception of a little help draining the noodles).
"What we have for you today is thin spaghetti topped with a hearty, cheesy meat sauce. We also have crusty garlic bread, buttery corn, and a very berry parfait."
