The Botzler Family

Daddy's little buddy Big boy underwear!!! Dress up fun!   At Charlotte's dance recital     Sammy's pre-K graduation! Our big girl graduated from pre-K on June 5th!  Her teacher gave an award to each student; Sammy got the award for being the silliest!  No surprise there.  :)   Since Sammy misses the cut-off for public school Kindergarten, she'll start a private Kindergarten program in the fall.  Then she'll be an "official" Kindergarten student in the fall of 2016.  Sammy's teacher, Ms. Kaitlynn Sammy's other teacher, Ms. Camille Colby and Sammy Colby, Emily, and Sammy Goofballs!

Ryan's first haircut!  Playing at the park...  Memorial Day Parade Bethany Beach! 

  In April, we got our first chickens!  We started with two - Eggy and Henrietta - who were 16 weeks old when we got them.  Sammy and Ryan loved bringing them home.  Reese wasn't as big a fan.  :)  A couple weeks later, we got another chicken - Chicky Feather - who was 12 weeks old.  Eggy laid her first egg at the end of May and Henrietta started laying soon after that.  Little Chicky Feather still hasn't started laying, and she's also limping because she hurt her foot.  Sadly, in July we lost Henrietta to a hawk or fox (or some other critter; we're not sure).  We're hoping to get another chicken at some point. The coop!  :) Sammy with Henrietta Eggy sneaking onto the back porch Henrietta and Eggy checking out their new home Enjoying some free range time!
