Loving the Outdoors

***Warning*** Lots of Springtime pictures that could make you jealous!....well, maybe not. It's still pretty cool here. But, tomorrow our high should be 61 degrees! yay! We've enjoyed getting outside more and more. We've played baseball, football, basketball, done yardwork, sat and relaxed, put clothes on the line.....we're enjoying the outdoors!
Silas loves to be outside and bark at all the dogs that pass and now he meows at cats too.
Of course, you can't get Josh away from any type of sports activity. He's always asking Patrick to throw the football with him or play 21.


My Elisabeth loves to play and crawl around with Silas. She's such an amazing big sister and he adores her, too.

Patrick and Brenna both share a love for gardening. Here they are checking out the spot that our landlord is going to till. They found some carrots that stayed in the ground this winter and Brenna found some earthworms. She loves them! When she was about 4 she would find earthworms and play with them until they died. Yuck! Not me!


Brenna's patio project is also coming along very nicely. After class today, Patrick and I sat outside for a while just enjoying the sunshine. We were talking about future picnics in the patio spot, too! Can't Wait!


Daffodils and Tulips are some of my favorite flowers (after Birds of Paradise, of course!) and we have both in our yard! Isn't God so good!

















Happy Spring, Ya'll!

  1. Love the springtime pictures and isn't it good to get outside after a long winter. The kids have grown so much...I'm like you...when did that happen and why so quickly??
    Brenna, I love your patio. I remember on your post from the before pictures. It's looking great and I can't wait to sit out there with you and have a glass of ice tea.

    Keep the springtime photos coming.
