The Great Thaw

Well, just when I thought I couldn't take another day of crappy, cold, gray snowy winter weather, Spring jumped back into my life. Hooray! (Yes, I'm aware that it's not truly spring yet, but the sunny sun, sprouting flowers and stashed away coat suggest otherwise.) I love opening the windows and letting in the fresh air. Ahhhh.



Before I get into our recent outdoor fun, I'll give a basketball update. Sadly, the Hurricane lost to Marshall by one in overtime for the sectional championship. We had two shots to win it in regulation and one in OT. Heartbreaking. :( This is the third year in a row Marshall has ended our season. We do see Mike much more now, so that's a positive. We all miss him during the season.



Chris Keefer, one of Mike's all-time favorite players, came all the way from Wabash to watch the game. He looks great and we're happy to see him doing so well. We met up for lunch on Sunday.



Chris, Pear, Mike at Applebee's.




The Worm and I.




Michael and I the night before. He wants to wear these jammies every night. I think I'm going to have to buy another pair!



Not sure why she's under the coffee table.


Today has been almost perfect weather-wise, and a bit of surprise since the forecast called for rain. We played outside for the longest time and then took Champy for a long walk. He's snoring as I type. :)
My little animals. Don't they look alike here?



Cutie!




Loving the warm weather!



Check out the form. He could do this all day.


Or this. (Excuse the socks w/ Crocs combo. They asked, I obliged.)


Her pose after sliding. Such a ham.


This playset was definitely worth the $$ we spent four years ago!




Taylor prefers the swings, Michael the slide. No fights - perfect.


She's growing up!



Off to enjoy the rest of this great day!



Until next time,



Mommy Kel
