Spring Snapshots

Knitting and Reading

This girl spends so much time knitting and reading these days. She is hoping to sell her knitted items to make money for horse camp. (Camp will take a couple years of saving...so this is a long-term goal.)








Shopping Dates

We had one-on-one shopping dates again this spring to get the bulk of our spring/summer clothes. We get to have a treat that day to make all that trying-on more bearable. ;) Makin chose donuts and Lorelei choose ice cream.








Super Mario

The boys were so excited to see The Super Mario Bros Movie in 3D!







Airplane Gliding

We enjoyed some fun with a glider I had stashed away.






Sunday Funday

We enjoyed playing putt-putt and our usual Sunday movie night.









Man-Of-The-House 101

Brad taught Makin how to replace Lorelei's bike tire over the weekend and they discovered one of the replacement tubes was the wrong size. When the tube came in the mail, Makin got the replacement all done so we could enjoy taking Lorelei's bike on the trail that day.








Ortho Update

The expander is out and a retainer is in! We are working towards the upcoming surgery, which included sending x-rays and pictures to the surgeon.








Gardening

We are enjoying some new plants again this spring.











The Cove

We received some free Cove passes and had to use them up before May so we enjoyed a weeknight trip out for some swimming fun.






Spring Recital

Our girl still loves her Polynesian class! She had her recital in April this year and had one of her most elaborate costumes yet! This year the style of dance her group did for the recital was Tahitian.








Couldn't resist a quick horse visit.




Most of her class.

Lorelei and Layla with their teacher,
who they call Auntie Christine per Hawaiin tradition.

Community Sale Weekend

The kids have learned that it's ideal to have a sale during the community garage sale weekend. Both kids have items they are saving up for and had been working towards this event...but the timing wasn't ideal weather-wise or schedule-wise. We did the best we could and they did earn some money but not as much as they would've on a typical weekend. Now they are working towards having another sale in the fall. We haven't found any free farmers markets but we are looking. :)







ManeGait Event

Lorelei and I both signed up to help at the large fundraising event - ManeGait's Country Fair and Concert. We spent the day helping with crowd control at the petting zoo!
