spa time!

So our spring break is underway with a forecast of snow this weekend! But we are good at making the best out of whatever we have to deal with. This is my favorite picture from today. At least one of us knows how to relax and play at the same time!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Here is a special shout out to my Mom-in-law, Pat,
Happy St. Patrick's Day! We love you, Mémère

OK, so it has been a while. My only excuse is a potential computer issue. Our computers are aging. Oh No! Hans removed some stuff so we would have enough room to download more pictures. Wasn't that great of him?

Spring is in the air!

Evangeline and I spent a half an hour outside today looking at the crocuses and running up and down the small hill (huge mountain to her!) next to our house. She is energetic, but what a great way to run off some energy! Her favorite play thing write now are crayons and pencils. Even me "the experienced Mom" learned the hard way not to leave a pen where she can reach it. My computer chair will never be the same! See the crayons behind her in the photo of her on her sit n spin!

Gabriella got a part in a community theater play! How exciting for her! She has practice twice a week.

Tim wants to run track again this year and has been practicing with the team.

Annelise is moving to the end of elementary school. She is so sweet and innocent, I am concerned that middle school will be so mean to her! We also recently discovered a great book that has been helping us both with caring for her hair. It is easier to take care of and less frizzy! It is called Curly Girl and we got to meet the author at our local book store!

enjoy the pictures! I tried to get a video too but I gave up after 5 hours.
