This past month things didn't exactly slow down, but with no guests and no trips we enjoyed staying close to home and getting some things done. The kids did start a new adventure: swim lessons.

We continued to enjoy the nicer weather and being outside more. We were able to walk/ride home from school, try a new park, and have some fun in our own yard.

The kids also had a blast making messes inside the house. We had pizza and root beer float night.
Flour everywhere

Annabelle's class had their spring field trip and all four of us were able to take part. We headed over to Star, ID where we visited the fire station, library, and Pizza Hut.

It was a packed house, Hudson managed to find a seat
The kids played a bit with their style this month. Hudson dressed himself and Annabelle followed suit. Annabelle has also been styling her own hair; all this is entertaining for me and I hope for you as well.
Shorts over pants
Butterfly hairclips (all of them)
We did manage to get away from home. We took a day trip to Twin Falls to see Shoshone Falls, we enjoyed the drive, a hike, and a picnic before heading back home.

We also continued to cross some things off our house list. We had curbing put in the backyard around the house and in preparation for our garden beds, which Sam also managed to finish.
Around house before curbing
Backyard....just grass
Curbing in...still have the dirt

(Hudson got fired from the job early on)
While we didn't have any house guests we did have a visitor: a snake. Annabelle was quiet excited about it and didn't want to let it go. Hudson "enjoyed" it from a distance.
On the hula hoop

(not touching it yet)
Hudson telling the snake to go away
Daddy joining in on the fun
Annabelle (in new outfit) worked up to holding it
Placed the snake in one of the raised beds....Annabelle was determined to keep it
(it got out of the bed, and the yard)
The last thing we managed to get done this month was plant our front flower pots....something I look forward to every year because it means the warm weather is here to stay for a while.
