Signs of Spring

We are enjoying the warmer weather! The kids have been playing outside the apartment with their trucks, buckets and shovels in the dirt. It's messy but they love it!

This afternoon we took a walk on the Spring Creek Trail (which is very close to our house).

We saw several ducks - Common Mergansers, Barrows Goldeneye, American Wigeons along with the usual Mallards and Canada Geese. It's exciting to see the birds migrating through!



After we got back from our walk, the kids spent more time playing outside on the quad. Today marks the first day that Luke played on a blanket outside. He loved feeling the grass and watching the kids play.










I am thankful for warmer weather and a chance to enjoy it with my family! Tomorrow we're heading up to the mountains to ski and to spend time with family. We're meeting Lois and Mike at Snow Mountain Ranch for a long weekend. I'll touch base here when I get back.

Here is another picture I wanted to add to the blog -- this was from today. Pat managed to read a book to all three kids at once -- not a task easily done.
