Wordless Wednesday - Fun in Ohio

Wordless Wednesday- ish

(I can never just keep my mouth shut fingers from typing out explanations.)

Noelle recently had to write a book (as a sort of culmination of all things learned in first grade), and her title happened to be “Fun in Ohio”.

She’s all aboutOhio.  So’s M2.  They adore Ohio.

My parents live there, and we don’t visit as much as we should terribly often.

So, when my brother informed us that he’d be having a little get-together of sorts for his college graduation (ish), we were all over it.

Here are some shots of our fun.

 

See?  I can swing too!

Who do you think taught Kae?

 What?  It’s totally the safe way to make sure your baby isn’t forgotten.

Kae chillin’ on Gwamma B’s comfy lounger.  Another “THIS is what I’m talking about” moment, perhaps?

A “Bubba Keg” for Uncle J.  Who just happens to be turning 21 next week. :-)

Fun in Ohio, indeed.

Easter - It’s a good thing

Though it was a very cooooold (and brown) Easter, it was a good one.

The sun graced us with her presence for most of the day. 

And the snow that did fall was beautiful snow. 

Sparkly snow.

(Hopefully the LAST snow.)

The girls were healthy - mostly.  And that always counts for something.

We were among family and good food.

That counts for a LOT. 

 We colored eggs - always a roaring good time.  :-D

And though it’s still cold today, there are signs that spring may be coming soon. 

My tulips are peeking out from their cold, snowy sparkly beds.  (Poor things.)

Buds are peeking out from the trees.

Robins are peeking out from their warm hiding places.

And potential buyers are peeking out (from the proverbial woodwork) - we’ve had more showings than ever this past week!  (Even one yesterday!) Woo hoo!!

So, if Easter brought us anything, it brought us hope.

Which was never really gone in the first place.

 Happy Easter!!!
