School Egg Hunt

Dear Ben and Dan,

I am so happy that I am your Room Mom this year!  I love being able to visit for fun special events like your Egg Hunt this year.

I am so glad that our house is right around the corner from school and I can walk over, hide eggs and watch as you and your class have so much fun finding them!

I am so proud of you in school!  Your teacher only has great things to say about you both!

Love,
Mommy

Spring is Here!

Finally!  After what seemed like the longest and coldest winter ever, spring is here and we are soaking up as much warmer air and sunshine as possible!

T-Ball 2013

This is the boys' first year playing T-Ball and they LOVE it!  Daddy has been practicing with them any chance he can in the yard.  We have had two games so far and they are really doing well and having fun!  Benjamin is number 1 and Daniel is number 2 on the Rockies.  Their coach is extremely nice and patient.They will play against some of their best buddies from school later in the season.  Even though their games are very early each Saturday, it's nice to get out in the spring air and sunshine. 

Spring Has Sprung!

 

Spring is here, finally!  We were waiting quite a while.  The dreariness has lifted, the flowers are blooming, the world is becoming colorful again!  Easter was fun... with egg dying and three (!) egg hunts,  baskets and gifts (not pictured) from the Easter Bunny.  Dad said, "Since when does the Easter Bunny bring wrapped gifts?".  Umm, this year!  The weather is getting warmer which means lots more time outdoors and windbreakers.  No wonder this is Mommy's favorite season!

Warm Spring Weather

Last week's unusually warm weather had us outside for three straight days, mulching, playing in the dirt, removing an old hot tub and replacing the area with our new chimnea and seating, making smores in said chimnea, rinsing off in a fun sprinkler run, and noticing all the new blooms popping through.

The yard is slowly coming together and looking better!  Andrew is growing grass and the major rain that's coming our way today (and that is much needed!) will certainly help.
