Spring Has Sprung

The daylight savings switch couldn't have come at a better time!  The last few days have been do warm and beautiful!!  It's funny, come Monday morning all that the high schoolers could talk about was how INCREDIBLY tired they were because they got one less hour of sleep but yesterday evening it seemed like everyone was out doing something fun.  My family went to the park it our neighborhood and just hung out; it was so fun :)  We played basketball and kickball and swung on the swings.  Today was even more beautiful and all you heard at school was "Can we have class outside??" "It's so nice outside!!"  "Oh my gosh, I wish I was outside..."  I absolutely LOVE spring and the change of seasons.  When the daffodil shoots start to come up, my world couldn't be better :) 

Once on this Island

Neil and Grant were in this musical this weekend; I enjoyed seeing it so much! (twice :)  They both did SO well, especially Neil who had a lead role as Papa Ge, the god of death.  Here are some pictures

March!

Happy first day of March :)  In my incredibly simple mind, March-May is spring, June-August is summer, September-November is fall, and December-February is winter...which means now it's spring!  Just the other day I noticed daffodils shoots starting to pop up - love it.  Unfortunately with March comes the very slim chance that the future will bring any school cancellations or 2 hour delays, but I am okay with that!  Today I was feeling crummy and I walked outside and it was just so hard to keep being sad when the weather and the world were so sunny and beautiful!  Also, tomorrow and Saturday Neil and Grant are in a musical at their middle school (called "Once on this Island") and I'm so excited to see it! Neil has quite a big role as Papa Ge, the god of death (hehehe :) Maybe I'll post some pictures when it's all said and done.  Grant loves to sing the songs and do his choreography in the living room, but Neil just tells us repeatedly that he can't wait to be done having rehearsals everyday.  We're way proud of both of em.
