I am way behind on our blog. The boys had Spring Break a couple weeks ago. We didn't do much because the weather wasn't the nicest. It did finally warm up last weekend and we were able to enjoy a few days of warm weather. To take advantage of it, I pulled out all the bushes and periwinkle in the front yard flower beds.
Our new Pagoda has inspired me to do an Asian theme, so with Laura's help, we headed over to Home Depot, Rosedale Gardens, Lowe's, and Clear Creek to pick out new flowers and shrubs. There might be a few more thing to buy as filler, but our main flower bed is pretty much done (we still need to buy something similar to bark to cover the dirt). I will most likely wait until I return from Europe to start on the flower bed next to the lamppost.
Tyler had his first baseball game last Wednesday. It was cold! Even though we lost, the boys were still getting used to hitting off the pitching machine rather than a tee, they still had fun. Tyler had his second game yesterday and we won! There was such an improvement in their hitting, and Tyler did awesome...he went 3 for 3!
We went to brunch this morning for Easter with my parents and Steve (Laura is in Chicago). The boys got a lot of fun things in their Easter baskets and A LOT of candy. They will be on a sugar high for the next week!
Connor has his second speech evaluation on Tuesday. This evaluation will determine whether or not he can get speech therapy in the classroom. We won't get the results until the 28th. I will be in Europe, but Jim will take Connor to the meeting.
Happy Easter! :)

Pictures turned out well from Easter. Like the photo of Tyler with his baseball team!
ReplyDeleteYour flower bed looks great! Nice that Laura helped you with it.
I see Jim is going to have a house guest while you are gone!!! When was that planned?
