Laura & Sam have found our local Casey's sells donuts, soft serve ice-cream, & slushies. We've been taking bike rides there almost daily during spring break to get a treat. It's over 2 miles to get there and back plus there is a giant hill on the way home. The kids always take GREAT naps after those adventures so everyone wins.
Spring weather always puts me in the mood to paint. I decided to paint horizontal stripes in Sam's room. I love how the stripes turned out! I'm totally in the mood to do some more projects before I head back to work. I haven't shared this with Eric yet, but I'm sure he'll be thrilled to hear it. ;-)
The neighbors have asked that we take care of their guinea pigs (at their house) while they're on vacation. Laura and Sam are all about it. Yesterday they were "shown the ropes" and as we were leaving Laura told the owner that her house was really messy. Like Laura's never seen a messy house before?! I wanted to crawl into the guinea pigs' cage.
I told the kids I would break out the swimming pool after their naps today. I better get the pool out of the basement and find the hose. Can you tell we're eager for summer?
