Baby Lambs



Spring is always an exciting time, lots of changes outside, and baby lambs at the farm! The lambs actually start coming in February when it is really too cold to go and see them, but we braved the cold wind last weekend and went to see the new lambs. My grandpa is so great, he herds those sheep around like a man of 20! He climbed into the pens and brought out some lambs for the kids to hold and pet. It was especially exciting because only moments before we got out to the farm there were 2 new lambs born! The kids loved seeing and petting the lambs and they didn't want to leave, but the moms got too cold! Thanks grandpa for letting us come!

Singin' in the Rain


The girls were so excited to go out and use their umbrellas in the rain! They didn't stay out for long, but they were so cute I had to take a picture.

Fondue!



One night in February DD1 decided she wanted fondue for dessert (or as she calls it- chocolate dip). I ran to the store for some strawberries and pineapple. We also tried bananas and marshmallows. It was very yummy, and not too messy. And as you can see we had lots of fun eating it!

Bowling Night





For family night a week ago we went to the local bowling alley. Both of the girls love bowling so we do it every few months or so. When we got there we saw that they are doing some remodeling, which will be really great when it is finished, the building was a little out of date. Since it was dusty and noisy, we were the only ones there-which is always more fun.
DD1 tried out bowling the "real" way for the first time, meaning she held the ball with her fingers and tossed it. It moved VERY slowly down the lane but it eventually got to the pins. DD2 had fun lifting her 6 lb. ball onto the ramp all by herself. I was afraid we would have some squished toes, but luckily we didn't. With the bumpers up we all bowled a pretty good game :) I was ahead for the first few frames, but then my hubby quickly caught up and won the game. A fun night was had by all!
