Swimming lessons

Tonight the boys posed for a picture before jumping into the water! It feels like the tropics there which is a nice break from this never ending winter. Evan is learning at school that April rain brings May flowers...humm. Maybe June flowers at this rate.

Ben and Jerry's and other fun stuff!

Today was free ice cream cone day at Ben and Jerry's.  I surprised the boys and picked them up from school and we went right to have ice cream.  We met our friends Sophie and Jack and enjoyed some yummy ice cream!  Too bad it wasn't a beautiful day to eat outside:-(

It is nice that it is light out after dinner, so we can get out on the trail for some bike time. 

Alex was home sick a couple days last week and we headed out to the park at lunch time for some fresh air.  You can see it is still pretty chilly wearing his hat and mittens.

He was feeling a little better and we were chilling on the couch together.  He wants you to know he's 4!

Last weekend Eric and Evan decided to wash some windows.  Last year with the dirt road we never bothered to clean them, so it is nice to have some clean windows.

Evan tries out his new bike.  He was always way in front of us, so I didn't get a close picture.  Alex's bike is a lot smaller, so he's always peddling his little legs to try and keep up.  Hopefully Evan will be ready to go without training wheels pretty soon!

Self portrait!

Crazy hair after taking off his hat!

Still a lot of snow in the front yard, so Eric shovels some in the driveway to try and get it to melt!  We are supposed to get a bunch more snow, so we'll see how long that lasts!  The buds are trying to pop out on my magnolia tree that was blooming last year on March 30th.

The kids have had their boots for a couple of seasons, so it's time to get a bigger size.  I saw Fleet Farm had them on sale this week, so we stopped last night after swimming and they each picked the fireman boots.
