spring has sprung

After a very very long snowy winter, the first warm days of spring are highly anticipated. We were all waiting for a chance to get outside (without our snowsuits) and play.

The first outdoor activity for the year was a neighborhood Easter egg hunt. Tren got the hang of it and picked up his share of the prizes. There was quite a turn out and it was fun to be part of the action this year instead of just watching.

Then there was actual Easter and our own indoor hunt followed by riding a new Mater.

It took a while to figure out how to hold down the button, but now there is no stopping him. Now if only I could convince him to run errands for me.

And of course, last but not least, was the Gilbert Easter party.

It was a cold, windy day but we still hunted our eggs and killed the pinata. Tren even got to help Grandpa make orange julius.

All in all we had a great kick off to spring. Now if we could only talk mother nature into warming up again.
