A Taste of Spring




We were outside for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours yesterday, and loved every second of it. Cooper and Nick drug out every outside toy they owned plus the shovels, broom, and other gardening tools they could find. Maddie is a dirt digger, too. She was so filthy when we finally came inside, but she was one happy girl! The boys went to a skating party last night, so after all of that, they had a really hard time getting up this morning. Needless to say, we took a much needed nap this afternoon, and we're still waiting for Nick to wake up so we can go back out.
We tried to take pictures of Maddie like we did of the boys -- it didn't go so well. Somehow, we made a game out of running off the background and being put back on it. I think we'll try again this weekend, but with some "props" for an Easter picture. I have some wooden eggs that may keep her occupied long enough to get a good one.
Another big weekend: Kid's Kingdom Friday night, a spa morning for me on Saturday, and Jeff and the kids are heading to church to hang out with the other dads and families. Sometime, we are getting over to Brian and Janelle's house to move a couch, and they are coming over here to use the high speed internet to do their taxes. Somehow I have a feeling, Monday will be here before we know it.
