Easter Bliss

     O.K.  Seems the weather here in Maine is as crazy as anywhere we have ever lived.  There was a freak snow storm in late April, and less than a week later we were on the beach in 75 degrees and sunshine?!  Makes baseball season a challenge.  Wet fields and buckets of rain have made it impossible to practice.  Ethan has his first game tonight, and the kids don't even know each others names yet...let alone positions!  Should be interesting. 
     I am excited to report that we got ourselves a garden plot here at the complex.  It's about 3'x3'.  Super small.  We are working with an artist in the building whom we befriended, and has offered her time and knowledge to train us in the building of small structures.  Our goal is to create an amazing fairy garden, complete with mini pond and solar fountain.  There have been a few brainstorming sessions that were incredibly fun.  Can't wait to start!
     Easter was scrumptious.  The weather called for rain, but early in the day the skies cleared and the temperature soared.  Mom and Dad's yard was in it's springtime glory.  We enjoyed a delicious meal cooked by Dad of ham and lamb chops.  Meagan and Ellie and Jason were there, and we were all ready to welcome the warmer days of spring.

Yarn project.  LOVE IT!
