spring has sprung

Today we got to spend the day with cousin Jill and Brooklyn! I love that Crew has a little cousin to play with. The other day she came to play for the day and I loved hearing their little conversations with each other. They chased each other around all day, gave hugs and kisses, and played in the sand.
It's fun having a little girl around that doesn't want to shoot me all day.
I had to take a picture of them on the big rock so show off not only them but my beautiful tulips that my friend Andrea planted for me before she left. It has sure made spring a lot more colorful and happy! I think I'm addicted to tulips now and want to plant them all over for next year.
The frog pond is now open for business and the frogs are in full hopping mode!
Hayden got his new bike finally about a month ago. He has been dreaming of this bike for some time! He looks so studly riding it around trolling for friends :)
I'm so happy that good weather is finally here. When it's sunny outside I spend the whole day in the sun - working in the yard - or laying out reading and watching Crew play. He brings me his shoes every minutes saying "please, please"!
I love to look out across the street at these pretty tulips too. They were Andrea's and so I told her I would take a picture of them for her. I didn't want to get busted by the new neighbor photographing her yard so they aren't very close up. Andrea put her heart and time into this yard and it's so pretty.

All in all it's been a great spring. I think part of the reason is we didn't do as many spring sports this year. Riley is playing softball but that's it. It's nice not to have to be running kids to practice and games everyday. I'm sure ready for summer though. Bring on the hot weather, pool/splash park days, snowcones, camping...you name it! I'm excited!!
