More signs of spring!

Even though it snowed this weekend, the weather had been nice before that.  We have climbed up the Monument twice, planted seeds for the garden, did a little spring cleaning, started making May baskets, and are watching our caterpillars grow. 

Ready to climb the Monument

Isaac made it further than he ever has before.

I love going for walks with my guys!



Apparently there were 100 mile/hr wind gusts at the Monument today.  I don't think we will be going back until this cold wind goes away (hopefully soon)!

Time to plant some seeds:
I love that the boys like helping me plant the starter seeds!

Brodie's are ready to go

Isaac's seeds are ready for some water

Just a little mess to clean up

Making some May day baskets:


Mixing up some clay, compost, and flower seeds for seed bombs.
And yes, Brodie did try to cut his hair again.

Isaac is rolling up some seed bombs for the baskets - I hope they work

The boys wanted to clean the windows and they did a very good job!


We've had some fun inside also.  Isaac loves to help me make cookies when Brodie is at school.

My heart is happy when I see him smiling and helping me in the kitchen

OK, maybe this is the real reason he likes to help :)


The boys and I had fun making ice cream cone rice krispy treats for Isaac's school party.



Thanks to Abel for getting up on his post call morning to make something to transport the treats in. 

Here are the little caterpillars from last week.  Now they are big and juicy.  We can't wait to see them when they are butterflies!



Happy Spring!
