Spring is here???

When Matt and I got home from our vacation, it had snowed here all week, I wondered if Spring would ever get here. My kids have been dying to go outside and play. Well on Sunday we had a beautiful day along with Monday and Tuesday and the kids got to play outside. I took some pictures of Parker riding his tricycle, he still can't seem to get the hang of it. Paige loved to be pushed around on the tricycle too. It was so fun to be outside together and to let the kids out of the house. Tuesday we were outside all day doing spring yard work, which I hate!!! It seems like we have 10 times as much this year since we cut 2 trees down last fall and we are still cleaning up the mess from that. I was out there working from 11 in the morning until about 4 in the afternoon. Yard work is hard work and I considered that my workout for the day and skipped going to the gym. The kids loved being outside with me and Matt. Parker explored our yard and even helped out a little. Paige discovered what a few things outside taste like and got her first sunburn!! I couldn't believe that she got sunburned, now I know I have to slather on the sunscreen. I felt so bad when I noticed how rosy her cheeks were and the next day when her eyes looked a little swollen. But we had a great time and hope spring is here to stay!!!! Tonight we are celebrating Paige's 1st birthday. Her birthday is on Easter this year, and today was the day that we thought would work the best. I made the cake and got the decorations all put up and we are ready for a great time! I will post more about that and the rest of the weekend at the beginning of the week. Happy Easter to everyone!!!
