Spring Has Indeed Sprung!

We've had three... count them, THREE, beautiful days in a row! Spring is finally here! You can see in the pictures that most of the snow has melted, thanks to the 60+ degree temperatures over the past 3 days, and the wind today (which I didn't mind since it's drying out the swamp that is our backyard). The boys have loved being outside and we have spent at least 5 hours each day playing in the backyard and meeting old friends like trikes, basketballs and other outside toys closeted away in the garage for the past 6 months. It's been glorious!

Obed likes to sit on Ezra's trike... sure, his feet don't touch the pedals or the ground, but he's pretty sure he's headed somewhere!
Asher has been enjoying the bubbles he received at the Easter Egg Hunt at the zoo last weekend. On a side note, clearly he is deep in concentration since the tongue is out.

Ezra picked the smallest broom to in order to clean up the concrete pad. He's been a fantastic helper the past few days, helping with raking, shoveling, or any other need that might arise outside. He proclaimed yesterday that he likes it better outside than inside... on beautiful Spring days like we've had this week, I'd heartily agree!
