Happy Drawing

I found this a while back - one of Laine's many doodles...

Mary is one of Mead's closest friends.  But she also dotes on Cole :-)  The other day Mary's mom snapped this picture of them, sitting together eating ice cream on a cold day.  Can't you just picture them still sitting together eating ice cream about 70 years from now?  Still snuggled together and content...

Batter up!

Once the weather got a bit warmer, Cole instinctively brought his bat, ball, and tee up from the basement and began playing with it outside.

He knew just what to do and even got a few good hits!  Swing on, little man!!

We got (Easter) egged!

For the second year in a row some friends of the family have egged our house - with Easter eggs, that is!

They arrive late at night and leave a note for the kids to find in the morning.

This year they hid the eggs all over the patio and driveway, thanks to snow and mud in the yard.

The kids were so excited!

Here's one!

And another one!

 Thanks, friends, for treating our kids to another great Easter egg hunt.

Oh, and here's the eggs we dyed later that afternoon.

Fun With Friends

Spring is finally here!  We've been able to spend time outside with lots of friends.

Here's the crowd (or part of it) from Easter Sunday.

Today we made a trip to Longview Farms...

What a fun group of kiddos!
