Happy Spring

Spring snuck up on me this year!! I wasn't prepared, but maybe I never am! The kids liked the tradition we started last year of planting seeds and playing with pinwheels. My mom sent those things to the kids last year for spring. We planted pumpkin and green bean seeds in small cups this morning and Tea played with my basket of seeds and lined them up. (I really need to get the garden planned!) Then we went to Michaels and bought pinwheels and bunny ears and went to Shelter Garden to try them out. The kids had a blast and the wind was perfect for it. I had to snap a few hundred photos as usual.

This afternoon, we blew eggs and decorated them with crayons and markers and plan to make an Easter Egg tree. I made homemade egg noodles with the eggs and we had chicken noodles for supper. My favorite meal and the kids loved it too. Kai said I'm the best cook in the whole world. Usually he complains about my meals!!

Happy Spring!
