Spring has sprung... a leak

Our Easter this year was nice.  We went to my grandparents', like we do every year, and the number of great-grandchildren was chaotic.  Chaotic, but fun.  Here are some of the pictures from the egg hunt they did.  As for other thoughts, news, viewpoints...

I realize that April showers are a necessary part of the yearly weather cycle.  But one has to wonder: Does all of the rain have to come in the last few days of April, rather than be spread out a day here and a day there throughout the month?

I think it is safe to say we are looking forward to sunny days.  Time to play outside, time to do yard work! Being home more often than not these days, I think it is time to do some serious work on the flower beds, and maybe reclaim the garden area.  Not to actually plant a full garden, but to get rid of a lot of the over-growth.  Although - the strawberry patches will be taken care of - and I think I might plan some sweet corn this year.  Now that I sit here and type this out - I guess I better ask Matthew about it as well.  I suppose I can pretend to be a good mom and see if he has an interest in planting something in the garden this year.

Our past few months have been relatively uneventful.  We've taken a few road trips here and there to see friends, I went to a concert, and work continues in its slightly sporadic way.  The boy continues to grow.  As for me... I'm floating along.  I believe I'd rather be steering myself in one direction or another, but haven't yet decided what direction that is.  So I float.
