This and That

I'm a Minnesotan.  

Have been all my life.

I know the weather here is eratic and often leaves much to be desired.

However, the past few years of mild winters and early springs have spoiled me, 

so this year...

Well, this year sucked.

Snow from November to May? Honestly?  

But yesterday I felt like the warm weather is finally here to stay.

I look at my forcast for the week and don't see a single temp in the 40's!

This is cause for celebration in my book!

Ryan was gone for 4 days, traveling for work over the weekend, and with the crummy

weather and sick kids, I was in great need of the glorious sunshine that graced us yesterday!

I'm ready for more today!

So here is the wrap up from the end of April and into May!

Sorry... there's a lot.

heard that.

Took this thinking (hoping) it would be the last snow!

Warm and sun

Then more snow

Dealing with the weird weather has made us all a little goofy

Spent some time at Grandma and Grandpa's.... Legos are the best!

Ryan and I played scrabble for the first time.  I was killing him until he pulled out a TRIPLE WORD score... :(

Chocolate is so smart

The view out my window on May 3rd... you have GOT to be joking!

A picture Lila drew at preschool of her and I... ???  ummm....

Ryan was in Talledaga for work for 4 days.... boy did we miss him.

But we hit up the zoo... always a Thumbs up!

And had some popcorn and watched The Lion King

I spy a cute little deer.... The dang suckers are going to wind up in my freezer if they don't quit eating the buds off my apple tree!!!!

And FINALLY.... THE SUN SHOWED UP!

Sun and warm weather.... Please PLEASE stay with us!  

Thank you.  

Sincerely, the entire state of Minnesota!
