Visiting with Lucas





Sunday night we had our nephew over for a visit. Funny story: My brother helped Lucas pack and apparently Lucas was adamant about not needing his bedtime buddies and blanket. Well, that backfired. At 9:30pm, Lucas is crying his eyes out. So, after a couple of phone calls to mom and dad, we decided to meet half way and get the bedtime stuff. It was a 30-minute drive for me and an hour for his mom. Ugh! The next day I decided to get them to the park. By the time the afternoon rolled around, my boys and I were ready to hit naptime. Whew!

More moments enjoying the unusual weather





Never thought we'd be experiencing May/June weather in March. Amazing!

Isn't the weather great?!






Yesterday I decided to take the boys to one of the park reserves at Homer Lake (outside of St. Joseph). What a great place! I had never been there before. We enjoyed walking a trail, checking out the water, and even spying on a crawfish. It ran away where it revealed it's home. So fun and can't wait to go back. The park is also in the process of creating a "natural playscape" for kids to play on. Looks close to being complete. Can't wait to go back with the bikes.
