Coloring Eggs

At the end of the long day yesterday we got to relax, have dinner and color eggs with some friends. They turned out pretty good, I thought.

Wooden Shoe

 It was a BEAUTIFUL day yesterday at the Wooden Shoe!

We had a busy day, we got to have M with us for the whole day, she was great the whole time.

The drive down to the farm was quiet (thanks to a movie), I got to chat with my Mom on the phone.

I had followed a new van from the exit off the freeway, the whole time I thought it was a friend in my ward.  While waiting in line to get in I see her head pop out of the window and it's B.Lowder!  Such a fun surprise to see my favorite Vancouver-ite.

The drive was worth it, the field was absolutely gorgeous.

My favorites are the multicolored rows.

 Here we are getting our boots on, which we didn't really need...but they were cute.

Speaking of cute...love these two kiddos.

 These kids were great the whole time, although we didn't have a lot of time to spend playing (because Jaida didn't get to come with us, so I had to be back in time for the bus drop off...I made it with 2 minutes to spare) we made the most of it.

After the tulips we picked Jaida up, went to the Primary party at the church (the kids kinda watched Disney's Robin Hood, while I was catching up on blogs and WWF), picked up Russ and dinner then went to the Yee's for the annual Easter egg coloring party.

Such a busy, fun day!

Bonfire

Cleaning out the garage with scraps of wood, why not have a bonfire?

Weather

Let's talk about the weather.

What is up with this rain and cold?  We have been setting records all over the place from rainiest to longest without hitting 60 degrees.

On the msnbc.com banner at the top it has the weather for our area, notice on the bottom right of the weather it says "(Change)".  Yes, I would like to change the weather to sunny skies and mid 60's please, you know...the way it's supposed to be this time of year.

Okay, maybe I'm dreaming about the sunny skies part, but the temperature change would be nice.

Luckily, this next week is "supposed" to be much better, here's hoping!

Lately

 I dusted off the table saw and got to work last week.  I made this frame to hold the kids pictures I printed out and attached to foam board.  The pictures are 12x12.

 In other news, some friends in the ward are moving and wanted to sell this scooter.  I was so happy when we got it, seemed like we lucked out a little as there were a lot of people who wanted it.  :)  It's an electric scooter and only goes about 25 mph, top speed, but it's so fun!  I'm sure if you live in my neighborhood you're going to be seeing a lot of us riding around.
