Summer, here we come
Visit from out-of-town friends, parade, gardening, grilling, Grandview Hop, church, naps, bike ride, COSI (science museum), and a Clipper's double-header. Unfortunately a church breakfast was rained out and it was NOT dime-a-dog night at the ball park or this weekend might have been in danger of exploding from awesomeness.
A great way to start the summer if I can just keep my head in the game for one more week of classes.
Cadie wanted to know where the Clipper's Parrot, Krash, was at every moment but when we finally got up close she wasn't so excited.

Oddities
Elephants in our neighborhood (really!) on their way to the circus downtown.
The climbing gear finally getting some use - Eric fixing roof damage from pesky racoons.
Finally, we always know what season it is or what holiday is coming up based on the costumes on our neighbors geese. Can't wait for the pool to open!

With a little help from my friends
My camera's memory card is full and rather than organize, download, and delete I'm ignoring the problem and relying on friends to take photos for me. Here are some recent great ones:
Playgroup at the park this week with 80 degree weather (from friend Amber):
Out to dinner a few weeks ago with freezing weather: Cadie wishing for warmer weather with her swim suit on top of her clothes (from sister Paige):
I'm teaching 2 classes this term and unfortunately they are on opposite days so I am on campus every afternoon M-F. The great thing about this term is that both Eric and I are only teaching classes that we have already taught - things are so much easier the second time around. We just finished week 1 but the stress level around our home is much lower than last term.
C's vocab is growing exponentially (finally!). I love the funny things that come out of her mouth. Today: (while inspecting her straight arm) "Mom, where elbow go?" and then bending her arm to get a better look: "Oh - hi elbow!"

Spring and Such
This isn't the greatest photo but I don't want to look at the snow pictures anymore. Something happened in Columbus a couple of week ago and we went from freezing weather to flowers. I don't ever want to go back. Ok maybe next year but right now I'm trying to soak up the rays any chance I get.
This week is spring break but not really, next week the maddness begins anew. Eric and I are spending the week in preparation for next term.
On a happy note, we signed up for a community garden plot again and have been planning our veggies. Yum yum. I love summer.

Snow and Such
We had to play in the snow at first while it was all new and pretty but now I just want it gone. In the meantime, we've tried to come up with creative indoor activities.
Here is my snow angel - notice the corduroy pants and rain boots. I avoided buying snow clothes for Cadie this year in hopes that we wouldn't need them.
I love this picture, Cadie and Eric wearing their baby carriers.
Eric and I went to the Columbus Blue Jackets game Friday night. It was my first professional hockey game. There were some similarities to the high school and college (USU) games that I've been to - mainly the exact same music was still blasted and the occasional punches were thrown. Overall the Blue Jackets were much more exciting to watch especially with a goal at the first 22 seconds and two more within 3 minutes. One weird thing (to me at least) was the man playing the organ. I expected Brewmeister Smith to pop out somewhere.
