Spring Forward (Part II)

A few more pictures from Spring to share:


Our blue tailed lizard that makes his home under our cover for our sprinkler system - we've been visiting him almost EVERY day since we found him - he's getting really big!


Olivia had a great time at two friends' birthday party at Noah's Art.

 

Me & my kiddos!


Best friends walking together.

Strawberry picking


Joe & Olivia on our "adventure walk" on Sunday.  Joe had taken us one some trails where he rides his mountain bike and usually sees all kinds of deer and other wildlife  - but with a chatty 4 and 5 year old - all we saw was a hawk hovering above - no deer, no owls, not even a squirrel!  The kids had fun trying to find "fossils" and came home with pockets full of rocks.


Olivia drawing with window markers - I've had these for a while, but just got the nerve up to let them use them - they worked well and came right off (even the marks that ended up on the painted walls & windowsill came off easily).



A trip to Krispy Kreme before we headed to the movies.


Spring Festival in Waxhaw - more face paint!


Mother's Day - breakfast in bed - I requested fruit because I know that we were heading to Biscuitville for breakfast.


Scavenger Hunt at the Spring Festival - done by a local church - had great bible stories and different "clues" to find at places like the Garden of Eden, The Burning Bush, The Desert - then they traded all their clues in for a prize.


Olivia is not afraid of anything especially this slimy snake she touched.

Well, I think this catches up on our whirlwind of a Spring !
