Here To Stay

Well, people... I don't know about you, but I, for one, hope that Spring is officially here to stay!

Winter has been long and crazy and I was starting to feel a little trapped by all the wind, rain and random snowstorms.

The last few days we've been taking advantage of the nice weather, getting our hands dirty planting flats of flowers around our yard and taking lots of walks.

Last night we headed to MCAs first softball game (their season started a few weeks ago, but EVERY game has been cancelled due to weather!) at Craig Ranch where Luke got a bad case of the wiggles. Due to the wiggles, he and I spent a good portion of our time doing this...

... and then more of this :)

We tried to stop for a picture, and as you can see our soon-to-be-to-year-old was none to happy about stopping.

YAY Mustangs! The game was actually mercifully stopped in the 5th inning when the score as 15-0. Despite the loss, the girls were all in good spirits :)

Luke enjoyed walking to and from the game more than he enjoyed the game itself!

What he didn't enjoy was when Daddy had to pick him up due to his refusal to hold one of our hands in the parking lot. SIGH.

We loaded up in the car and headed to Olive Garden with Dave's parents, his brother and his brothers new non-girlfriend girlfriend. Luke CHOWED DOWN on bread sticks, but the best part was when we were pouring out his cup at the end of dinner and discovered a crayon at the bottom! Little stinker must have stuck it in through the straw hole when we weren't looking.

Since we weren't very full from dinner (ha!) we headed over to Free Cone Night at Ben and Jerry's. It was PACKED and they had tables set up in the parking lot! We met up there with Dave's brother Stephen and his non-girlfriend girlfriend :) and also ran into the MCA softball team. So much fun!

Dear Spring, If you could please hang around for a LONG time that would be awesome. In fact, why don't you just go ahead and tell summer that he can have the season off and you'll take over. Pretty please?!?!?!

Sincerely, Andrea
