It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas.....


We had our third snow storm in 2 1/2 weeks last night and today. I measured about an hour ago and we have 15 inches of snow. (The first storm I measured 19 inches and the second one was only a foot.) It is rather pretty except that we are approaching May and are snowed in! It seemed weired earlier to be out sledding with Olivia and all the while hearing spring birds chirping. It has been a strange spring as far as weather goes. Earlier this past week it neared 60 degrees and Thursday morning we awoke early to thunderstorms!

Joey is 6 months old!


Our precious son turned 6 months old yesterday. What a joy he is to have in our lives. We love you, Joe!
Joseph is rolling over now. He rolled over for the first time last weekend while I was at my parents. It is so fun to watch your children grow and progress. We thank God often for blessing us with healthy children so far.

A Winter Wonderland - in April?



After spring-like temperatures this week winter returned with a vengeance today! The snow finally had melted enough by Thursday of this week for Rich to push Olivia on the swing. Today the snow covered it once again. Initially, we thought the snow would hinder our swinging but we found out that swinging in the snow is actually fun. And, sliding down the slide works better in the snow than during the summer months - the snow pants and wet slide make for a fast ride down! These pictures were taken about 4 hours ago and it is still snowing hard. We figure we have a good foot or so. So much for spring!
