Back when spring was here...

I thought about blogging several times a week...but I never got past the thought.  We have been doing 1 of 3 things pretty much every week for the past several months... Either we are having company, traveling, or sick. So now I thought I would attempt to slowly catch up on posting once again.

I like to do the panorama of the yard regularly throughout the seasons so just skip over it if it bores you. ;)

Spring thunderstorms  passing through.

 
Some of our Spring projects included sanding and refinishing the deck,

as well as painting the kids playhouse, adding the border, and sewing the curtains.

Hooray! No more digging splinters out of little feet every evening.

Aubrey got the first bee sting among the kids when she stepped on a bee during those first barefootin days.

 When spring had blossomed out in all of its beauty we had ourselves a little Springfest!

 We started off with gettin' all decked out with some serious Flower-Do's

Took a tour of all the latest blooms in the yard.

Followed by the Flower-Do Biker Parade

 Next up was watching 'The Weeding of the Beds' by Mommy.

Complemented by some fresh Strawberry-Peach Smoothies (our very favorite!)!

 There was the Egg Discovery held under the tree. 

 A great hands on exhibit! :D

 The Front Porch Rockin' Chair Routine was put on by Miss Kate and The Boy.

Then things got a little more exciting with The Fencewalk...

Practicing on the low one

before graduating to the high one.

He did it too but I was videoing at that point, so no pics.

 and The Bike Stunts!

Wrapping up the fun with Sandboxes...

 And Silliness! :D

 Ending with a glorious sunset! 

Have you ever seen a rainbow in a sunset?  I thought it was pretty cool!

So ended our welcoming of spring.
