Okay, I uploaded a lot of pictures, but it describes what a great spring it has been so far. Charlie is REALLY into planting this year, thanks to Cyndi, his day care lady! They did in the dirt, plant seeds and watch them grow all day long.

Luke loves this tree, and this spring is watching the crab apples start to bud and bloom. It is the best tree. In a week it will be white with flowers.

Charlie is into playing games, usually with his own set of unique rules (where he always seems to win). This UNO game was fun, but trying to figure out how it shoots out the cards is even MORE cool!

Tom made Nicholas' day by cleaning out the garage enough so that he and Luke could play hockey. Amazing the little things that make a ten year old happy! He also is learning to ride a skate board. He is determined to figure it out, I am sure he will be cruising around the neighborhood in no time.

Tomorrow is the kids' genetic testing at Children's Hospital. Four kids getting blood drawn, should be wonderful. Maybe none of them will have the thing I have, but if they do, we will know before it causes a "problem". The best part of tomorrow is that we don't have to be there till 9:00, so we get to sleep in! Oh, and 5 more weeks till school is out. I love working, but we definitely could use a break. I initiated a "healthy choices" challenge at work, and lots of the women are joining me in eating healthy and losing some pounds. I could really use that! And when I have someone to compete with, I do much better, so before you know it, I will be back in the pants from last summer. GRRR. We weigh in on Thursday. It should be interesting!
