What a Weekend!

We had a wonderful weekend! Friday night we enjoyed a picnic at the park with our little friend Ryan Schroeder. Cassidy loved running around with her buddy Ryan. They ran up and down a huge hill half a dozen times! We also took our dog, Sadie, to the Hund Platz (dog park). She seemed to enjoy the new surroundings and Cassidy had fun going through the agility course with Sadie. Cassidy showed Sadie how to go through the tunnel...it was fun to watch the interaction. We also met two new dogs, a Pugle named Stanley and a Rot named Diesel. They were both lovely dogs and Cassidy and Ryan enjoyed running around with them. After our evening at the park we came home and Cassidy crashed! She was so tired from all that running!



Saturday we worked on the house. We are really trying to have it ready to sell. The sign is out front and we are keeping our fingers crossed we will find a buyer. Lucas worked on cleaning out the garage and taking things to Goodwill. I worked on the inside and took care of the girls. Cassidy and I cleaned her room and sorted through her clothes while Cailin played in her Leap Frog chair and watched us. The girls and I went outside and we enjoyed a bratwurst lunch with Mom & Dad Hart, Abe, and Shirley. Cassidy and Cailin enjoyed being outside in the sunny, almost 80 degree weather.



Sunday morning we spent more time outside. We went to Mom & Dad Hart's for a chicken barbeque. It was a nice, peaceful afternoon. After our visit we went grocery shopping which is always an adventure with the girls! Finally, we had a restful, quiet evening.



Unfortunately, this week I have to take the girls for their vaccinations. I am definitely not looking forward to this...hopefully it won't be too tramatic for any of us.

Spring is Here!

We have been enjoying some beautiful weather lately, which we are extremely thankful for. Cassidy has enjoyed riding in her wagon and running all over the yard. Cailin isn't too sure about being outside, but she seems to enjoy looking around and watching all the movement. We also enjoyed some time at Kid's Kingdom where Cassidy enjoyed swinging and the "big" slide!


Last weekend we enjoyed a visit with my parents. My Mom, Cailin and I attended a family bridal shower while Cassidy enjoyed some quality time with her Papa. Lucas was in Lansing attending class, which wasn't too fun for him. Lucas and I were able to attend Venner Dinner Theater, which was wonderful. Cassidy and Cailin went on a little road trip with my parents to see my Grandma Huffman in Roscommon. Mom assures me the girls behaved and didn't cause any problems!

This week we have been enjoying some abnormally warm weather. It has been in the mid 60's to 70's this week, which is amazing. The weekend isn't suppose to be as warm, but still nice. Hopefully we will be able to take advantage of the nice weather.

Have a blessed day!

We enjoyed a beautiful weekend. It was 60 and sunny both Saturday and Sunday. It was so nice that we spent almost the entire time outside, which was wonderful. Cassidy loved being outside and I have had a difficult time keeping her from breaking out of the house! Cailin wasn't as impressed, but she did take a nap outside in her stroller. I am sure the fresh air was good for her.

We are listing our house with a realtor this week, so hopefully things will get moving on our plans to build our new house. I am keeping my fingers crossed that our house will sell and things can get rolling!

This weekend we are looking forward to spending time with my parents, attending a family wedding shower, and attending Venner Dinner Theater. It should be a busy weekend.
