SPRING is here! At least we hope!

A couple of days ago it was snowing! But yesterday it was BEAUTIFUL!
Over Easter weekend we got some pretty flowers to plant in the yard. Ryan has some family that works at Milgro and we were able to get some beautiful flowers, THANKS!!

Cala lilies, Easter lilies, Tulips, and Daffodils


Ryan had a whole week off work (not by choice) and we decided to do some cleaning!! So here are a couple of before and after pictures of our project in the garage. It basically took all week and we still aren't quite done. But you get the idea.




The AFTER








The BEFORE! YIKES!



Easter and Stuff

We really did celebrate Easter, I just forgot my camera AGAIN! I guess a lot of this year will be going undocumented!! Bummer!! Thanks to my in-laws we had fun coloring eggs and had a big egg hunt at their house. Lots of yummy food and good company! Thanks for everything.

Yesterday was the Kite Festival. I don't really like it anymore! The kids had fun but we didn't even fly the kites. It wasn't very windy while we were there. Just HOT! We bought tickets for the bounce houses but at $1 a piece it was a RIP OFF!! The kids really didn't even want to use their tickets! SO NOT doing that again. Next year I think I'll tell them we'll go get the free kite and if they spend NO money there I will take them to Jumpin' Jacks and they can play as long as they want. I think it will still be cheaper than what I spent there for tickets, train rides, ice cream, and snow cones!!
