HAPPY MARCH

Well, the year is 1/6 the way through. Can you believe it?!?! We've had our share of rain in February but still anticipating drought conditions and water rationing this summer. Forecast shows more rain this week so hopefully Mother Nature will take care of herself. Please don't let the weather deter anyone from visiting us out here. My first tulip is now in bloom. The daffidils are still up. I expect the freesia next week and saw the first irises and anemones earlier this week. Spring waits for no one!
Brother Joe has been commissioned to build the new deck/lattice/shade for our big gala this summer. He's spent about 24hrs here and will hopefully be back next weekend to continue.
Kids are great. Hailey enjoys her weekly ballet and tap class. Britten just started Karate. He also enjoys math at school. Hailey's getting good at writing her name and identifying letters. Yup, we think we'll keep the cuties. Happy Birthday's to everyone!!! Aunt Michelle(S), Micah, Chris, Dian, Nathan...um...who did we miss?

Pictures are of kids at zoo last weekend. We had a few dry hours so took advantage of it. I'll let y'all guess who is who. Ciou.

Heart Day

Quick update to the family since you've all used the "new camera" excuse, I'm using it now. We have a new camera but I don't have the cord to download pix to the computer so you'll just have to use your imagination when you think of our Superbowl party with the 3-D glasses on the California clan. You have to use your imagination to view my daffidils in full bloom, you have to close your eyes and imagine the kids bedroom where they created houses and mazes out of every book on their shelf from 5 am - 7 am this morning. You can only imagine our day at Tilden Park visiting the Little Farm. Yes, we did all that and more these past few weeks but for now, you can only imagine...
