Spring has sprung!

What a beautiful day today! No school for the kiddos and no work for me. If only Scott could have been home with us. :( The kids and I spent several hours outside enjoying the sunshine. After a rigorous weed pulling and general cut back day on Saturday we were able to enjoy a lovely afternoon in the backyard. Thank goodness the rain is gone for now! Sophie delighted daddy when she told him they hadn't played in their rooms at all today.

Sophie and Ty played fairies in their playhouse after a relocation (the house was moved to the corner under the "forest"). I have been proclaimed "the best mother ever" by Ty after transporting said house to its new home. Who knew that was all it would take?!

Evie got to try her fresh little toes on the grass - looks like a hit so far. She is so fair and turning out to be such a red head that I am a little terrified of what the sun will do to her! Not that any of us sport a stellar tan...

We have buds poking up everywhere in the garden areas and we can't wait to see what flowers show their heads. I couldn't even begin to tell you where we put which bulbs - it will be a wonderful surprise!

Tomorrow I plan to take actual photos of our little paradise. Stir crazy no more - rain, rain, stay away...
