Hurray for Spring

Spring has brought about such joy and renewal. I love this time of year where things start anew. Our flowers are starting to bloom. Our apricot is now "popping". I finished pruning three trees yesterday while the kids played in the sand box and on the swings. Maurie is so easy and she doesn't eat sand or throw sand or play in dirty corners like the boys did. She loves the dog and our cat. Our pets are quite entertaining to watch outside. Brinkley chases George around the yard, and when I play with Brinkley our cat gets jealous and tries to get the dogs attention by chases him and enticing him with a dash here and there. George kept me entertained while I pruned because he would run across the yard and up in the tree over and over again just to say hi! pretty funny
This last week was busy but fun. Ted and I celebrated our 8th Anniversary!!! and we had a fun time in Salt Lake while the kids stayed at my parents. I am lucky to have married such a sweet (and of course, manly) guy. We are excited for the next 8 years +!! Also this week, Ted and I both had eye appointments, Sam performed in a "friend" musical for school, we bought a chest of drawers for our bedroom so we could fit more clothes and limit the space, I textured our bedroom ceiling and shampooed our carpet, the kids and I went to the Dinosaur Museum and 3-D movie, I had my first basketball game for the Spanish Fork City league, Ted was preparing for a work related trip. Needless to say, we were busy and I forgot to get my camera out!!
