Sunny Sunday

After church today, we went outside and played for a little while. The weather was absolutely gorgeous!!

Cooper digging out the lawnmower
He had to check to make sure it was still in working order!
It works!!
Next, the heavy equipment comes out

Line 'em up
The wheel barrel carrying an important load of chalk
Reagan came out to play with us
"what should we do first?"

Reagan trying to explain the rules of "Easter egg chalk hide n seek" to Cooper
The weather was so warm, Reagan had to take off her long sleeve shirt and tights
Cooper found a lot of Easter egg chalk
After naps, we went on our first walk/ride/mow around the neighborhood of the year
some things never change
the race is on!

Cooper took a little time to enjoy the flowers (or weeds!)
Reagan found more weeds to enjoy
a deep botanical discussion ensued


On our way back home, the neighborhood girls invited Reagan to play with them
Playing mosquito tag
sharing stories
We had a great day of warm weather...we're ready for spring!

Saturday Stuff

We had another big Saturday this weekend. We started off with scratch made chocolate waffles for breakfast ~ they were yummy!! Then we went to gymnastics class. The kids did great ~ unfortunately, you'll just have to take my word for it because I had my camera, but there was no SD card in it ~ ugh!! After gymnastics, we ate lunch at Old McDonalds and even had an ice cream for dessert. Then it was home to play for a little while before heading out to soccer practice for Reagan. While the girls were at soccer practice, the boys helped us out by grocery shopping.

Ready for her 1st practice

What a Difference...

...a day (or 3) makes!! The painters have left their mark on our house. We still have a lot of decorating to do, but the paint looks great.
