Spring is here (hopefully)!

This weekend was absolutely gorgeous.  It was nice to be able to run around outside with a hoodie instead of a coat! Patrick got a new lawn mower, so the kids helped him clean out the shed to make room.  It's amazing what you forget that you have when it's been in the shed all winter!  The t-ball set continues to be a big hit.
 It was just nice for them to be able to run around outside!
 Also in the shed was a skateboard.  I don't know whose it is, because it was in the shed when we moved in.  I have to say that I am not a big fan.  I see all the edges and corners that they could bump into and imagine the emergency room visit.  It's a good thing they have their daddy or they'd probably never get to do "dangerous" things.  Isabel loved it and practiced quite a bit.
 Clark rode his bike a little bit.  Our driveway is slanted just the tiniest bit and makes it hard for Clark to pedal in one direction, but he would get so mad if I tried to give him a push!  He was feeling independent.
 I tried to get them all to look ,but this was the best I could do.  About 10 seconds later they were all on the ground wrestling and giggling.
 Patrick loves to be outside and this weekend he's working on some drawers.  There's something very attractive about a man and his power tools :)
 Clark saw a spider.  haha
 Elizabeth didn't enjoy the skateboard as much as her sister, but bounced up and down on this ball for a while.

I wish the weather would stay this way!  It was nice to have a taste of it.
