Fun for Mason


I forgot I was going to add some other pictures to my post the other day---about Spring and forgot. It was such a nice day last tuesday, I mowed the lawn and worked outside. Mason came home and turned on the sprinklers--look and see. He didn't last long, because it was after school. But he did get wet and cold. This was after school about 4. Then today--Sunday it snowed--YUK! Sammi made it the trampoline also, but I didn't get a picture.






And then I wanted to share what else we were busy doing last week---see if you can guess what this is----




Yep His pine wood derby car. He had such a great time building it with his dad. Its the yellow one---notice the Charger colors he picked out. He did a great job. His birthday was Friday. We celebrated at Leo's Place on Saturday. I took pictures there, when I get them downloaded, I will share.

















And wait til you see what Adam is making this week. I can't wait til it's done.---Messy-Messy-Messy!!!!!!

Spring has finally arrived in Idaho


I have watched others post their signs of spring and have just been waiting and waiting and waiting-----guess what it is finally here---Look and see---My only 2 blooms but wait til you see what is trying to come up. Yep those are my Peonies peeking through some weeds that need pulled already.

















So a few weeks ago we got some bare root starts for chokecherry shrubs from Karen. They are already leafing out. I am so excited.





So I had to take pictures of our apple
tree and cherry trees. Spring is so trying to get here.

These are pictures from our last snow outing. This was from the first part of March, but I thought Ivan had taken my photos. So sorry it took so long to post these. It took some time to convince the kids to get out of the house--cuz "We just don't want to!"---but then found out we could have a great time with one another---









So, here are some great pictures of our outing. They didn't think it would be much fun, but I think we have proof that they were wrong. Here are some great adventures-- that occurred on a 1 mile walk. Here is Ivan throwing Sammi into the snow bank.



And Mason playing Football and making a snow
angel on the side of the road.





















Of course you can't go in without a snow ball fight! Right? wonder who won?


Well it probably doesn't matter anyway! As long as we are all having a great time.


















So I guess the ultimate question is........Who really is "King of the Hill"?

At least its funny
