May

I finally updated my photo frame last night. All pictures of the kids in front of the May tree. Beautiful really. I can't believe that May is pretty much over; so much done, yet so much to do! Our first camping trip of the year was a sucess...if you count camping in Dad and Mom's backyard! Slowly the laundry is getting done...now only if I could get a routine where it magically folds and puts itself away! The sunny weather means more time outside with the kids. And better moods ( I think!) Although being tired is always there, the need to get stuff done kinda trumps that! Naps still happen though! Yay for kids that let mom nap! Hopefully tomorrow it is nice. Felicity needs her garage-saleing fix and we have the Church picnic...all fun!

Spring

So this week has been absolutely beautiful. The wind is still a little chilly, but we have been spending some time outside! A new bucket of chalk( a good find at the garage sale!) was a big hit with the kids even though Chandler thought they were meant to be thrown and broken! Other then the dread of cleaning up the dog poop in the yard,(we don't have a dog!!!) I love this time of year...now if only we could get that fence done so that the girls could play outside by themselves!!...they are always asking to go outside but it is not always possible. No wonder they like playing at Eric+Brenda's house...a fully fenced yard, they can go out whenever they like. and cause Mom loves the company:) We've also been spending time outside at Opa and Gramma's house (Kort) Felicity was the only one that enjoyed the tractor ride. Evangelene would only go near it if it was turned off and Chandler just screamed anytime it got closer than 20ft to him! He also did not like the bike ride in the seat on Grammma's new bike...a little history there; Opa and Oma Kort bought the seat for Mom and Dad when they were expecting me...and now Gramma(mom) uses it for the grandkids...so neat!
So enjoy this weather...I know I am!
