Happy Monday! This weekend I got a few new things for us: a soft, cushy rug for inside our little "house" to make it cozier. The kids love going in there one, two or even squeezing 3 in at a time. It is a nice place to get away to by yourself -or with a couple of friends :-)  I also got a stationary bike that someone was giving away- it used to hook up to a video game I think but I took the wires off and it makes a great stationary bike. I'd love to have a big gym area for the kids but don't alas, so I need to get creative :-)

We read a new Dr Seuss book and an Easter egg hunt story. We also got outside- it was nice when we first ventured out but the sun went away and the wind picked up and it was cooling down fast by lunchtime.

Alanah and Boog, Addison, Brendan, Phaedra and Lelia

Alanah feels the new rug, it is super-soft

Phaedra is on the new bike, with Lelia, AJ and Brendan

Outside! Jack

Ivy- she was too busy to look at me :-)

Making "hot chocolate" all you need is a garden cart, a stick, some water and sand- mix

Crocuses behind the porch- spring is coming, spring is coming- at least the earth has warmed if not the air!
