Spring?


Well it's spring inside but not so much outside! So I am not a green thumb at all so I was so pleased when the kids and I planted these flowers and they are actually growing. I have to give props to Daryl since he clued me in on putting it in the window so it could get some sun ( kind of important). The kids are loving it and go and try to water them every day. Parker tells me "it's growing mom, it's really growing". Sometimes the simplest things bring me so much joy.

Camping at Red Cliffs

This is pic above is of Quail Creek Reservoir, where we camped. 


Emma found her Shadow!



Snack break on our little hike!



Cooling off in the wash after the hike. Emma loved this but Parker wanted nothing to do with it.
In his words"It's too cold, the sun needs to warm up the water". 
Watching a flick in the Trailer!
Playing go fish- they are still trying to get this one down but it was fun to play and see how competitive Parker is! He always wanted to win.
It was so good to get away even if it was only for a few days. The kids have been telling up that it was time to go camping because the snow had all melted on the grass so we made good on our promise and went camping.

Spring?



So Emma, Bella and I went on a walk last weekend and the weather was so nice! Now not so much:( We have been taking advantage of the nice weather so on a another day we went to the park for the first time since Fall. Emma was full of pure joy! She was laughing about everything and really just full of excitement. I love seeing her so happy. Funny little thing happened while we were there- she told me she needed to go potty but the door was locked and just to add insult to injury there was a dead bird in front of the door. So I asked her if she hold it until we got home- she said yes. So we went about playing and then when I picked her up I felt that she was wet so I asked her "Did you pee your pants?" to which she responded in matter of factly "No, I peed my tights"! That she did, she was wearing tights instead of pants!
