We found (and carefully collected) several cocoons from our lilac tree!
The kids are anxiously awaiting to see what will emerge!

Our pretty baby lilacs

Uncle Sam's new truck

"Uncle Sam" (not my actual Uncle Sam...for those family members reading..."uncle sam" is our neighbor & works w/Curtis)
Anyway, he got a new truck!
And, Cole was VERY excited to go for a ride! :)

Yea! What a happy happy little boy!!

one happy little boy (and girl)

He LOVED pretending to drive the big truck!

Blue skies and rainbow!

The view from our front yard this evening!
Cole (my little meteriologist) brought our attention to the rainbow overhead!

I tried to get a good pic w/out that darn powerline :(

a little trip to Swallow Falls

Even though I felt pretty crappy all weekend, we were determined to get out of the house and enjoy the nice weather!
A little trip to Swallow Falls was just what we needed, and the fresh air felt great!
The kids had A LOT of fun as we poked along, checking out everything along the trail.

Almost...gotta love self-timers on the camera!

takin' a little rest

Wishing this had turned out better...some guy offered to snap the pic for us.

A little movie star

a little more hiking

We found a dead turkey vulture along the trail :(

Spring Music Show

The kids of the Sacred Meadow Montessori school held a Spring Music show this afternoon.
They sang several songs, and all did a fantastic job!
So VERY proud of Rylie, Cole and all of their friends!

Getting ready for their performance...

...and the videos will come as soon as I can get them uploaded (they're huge files).
