Fishing

A certain little guy had been counting down the days till fishing season officially began. He knew Dad had to work on Saturday, but there was the promise of a fishing outing in the afternoon to celebrate the start of the season. Even though Dad was at work, he had his pole and tackle box sitting by the back door all ready to go first thing in the morning. As soon as Dad got home, he put everything by the car in great anticipation.
They didn't catch anything, but they "had some nibbles" according to Jaeden. A little boy couldn't be happier that fishing season is now here! Anyone else "in the same boat"?

Married Cousins

Our oldest nephew Chris and his sweet wife Krista from AZ stopped to visit us the end of January when they came up to WA to get the rest of her things. What great news to hear that they're expecting a baby at the end of the summer! That will make us a great-aunt/uncle. Can't wait to spoil the wee one!
We saw Chris' married sister, Molly Jo (middle) from AZ a couple of weeks ago when she was up to take care of some business. The cousins always have a great time together! Can you tell? Jordan, where's your goofy face?

Spring Break

We had hoped to go up to Canada to Keith's uncle's dairy farm, but decided to stay home instead and do things locally that didn't cost very much.
We enjoyed visiting one of our favorite places last Tuesday. We'd heard that they had some babies on the farm so the kids were excited to go check them out. Even Jordan was looking forward to it! Only downside was that it was a weekday, so no fresh apple fritters for us.

Jaeden & Brooklyn always insist on a picture with the apple tree.

Strutting his stuff
The kids were delighted to see that there were some "escapees" that had climbed through the fence.
Love their fluffy little tails!
These little darlings were feeling rather frisky! The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.
King o' the barrel
It was a VERY cold and windy day so we didn't stay as long as we would've liked to. We still had a great time and enjoyed our day. During Spring Break last year, we were on our cruise so we were wishing we were on another one again.
