National Sibling Day
National Sibling Day was celebrated a few weeks ago. We are all so blessed to have our all brothers and sisters in our lives, both two-legged and four.
Photo Booth Fun!
We all squeezed in to a photo booth for some silly selfies to cap off a wonderful spring break day spent at the Strong Museum in Rochester. Say cheese!
The Golden Egg
Reed and Willa headed to Green Lakes on the day before Easter for an Easter egg hunt. Despite the cold temperatures and wet snow, many eggs were found, faces were painted (an egg for Willa and a bunny face for Reed), crafts were completed and Reed was even lucky enough to find a golden egg!

Sweet as Syrup
Last weekend, we headed to Cedarvale Maple Syrup Company for their annual spring open house. We learned about the collection and boiling processes in the "Sugar Shack" and got to try some of the unrefined syrup straight out of the buckets, then headed out to the woods for a hike among the maple trees, and even got to taste the finished product, maple syrup and maple cream, in the little tasting room. We look forward to this every year and Sunday's adventure was as sweet as ever.

Egg-cellence
Reed and Willa dyed their Easter eggs last weekend and we delighted to see the gorgeous, rich colors emerge on the brown eggs.
Under the Rainbow
Willa recently expressed that she'd like to sleep under a rainbow, so with a little yarn and some knitting needles, magic happened and her wish has come true.
Breath of Fresh Air
Despite the recent cool, damp weather, we continue to keep the faith a few do believe that spring is right around the corner.
Sick of Sickness
Reed, Willa and their parents had a miraculously healthy winter. Then mid-March started. A nasty cold went through the house which turned into a bad sinus infection for Willa and pneumonia for Reed. We are finally getting our feet back under ourselves and the kids, at least, are certainly feeling much better. Although we are all so dog tired of illness, even Stella Blue, this picture of Reed, taken 1 day after pneumonia diagnosis, just goes to show you that we haven't lost our spirit although we have lost a few nights' sleep.
