Spring Break...Snow Break!

As stated before, our weather this "spring" break has been far from spring-like! However, we have been able to still have some fun in and around the house, and out and about!

Friday morning we rode with friends to see the movie "The Croods." We went to the 10:45 show and must have barely made it in time because shortly after we found our seats we learned that our showing had sold out! The kids had fun and did really well during the movie. It was something I tried to soak up as I know that pretty soon it just won't be as easy as piling in to a friend's van to head to the movies!
 "The Croods" crew!
Mmm..."popcorns" as Gavin likes to call it! (this was also the day after he started referring to himself as Superman...hence the shirt he chose to wear that day!)

The next day was Joe's day off. Hooray! He and Gavin had some "boy bonding time" taking the 4 wheeler out into the country to refill deer feeders and replace batteries in trail cameras. :) Sydney and I stuck around and headed off to the grocery store. Fun, fun! When the boys got home Gavin had something really exciting to share with us....

That afternoon it started to snow. That evening it snowed some more...and some more...and some more. We woke up to about 6-8 inches in our driveway (according to our chief snow-shoveler aka Joe) with drifts up to about a foot deep. The kids played in the snow while he shoveled and we've just been enjoying the snow days ever since! 
 Getting the seed starter kit ready...if spring ever truly arrives!

 Gavin wasn't entirely interested in exploring with us....



Our very own "gator boy"....he wrapped him up and was preparing to return him to the water. :)

Yes, they are still in pajamas. Maybe tomorrow we'll have to return to reality, but until then, we are just going to be "hanging out" as Sydney likes to say!
