Saturday

We worked hard trying to take advantage of the nice weather we had this Saturday. We spent just about all day outside.

Did lots of gardening.

Trampled some flowers, maybe that counts as gardening, not sure.

Went for our first bike ride as a family of 3.
Henry seemed to like the bike trailer. Well he fell asleep on the way there and the way back, I think that counts as liking it.

Played at Breithaupt Park and had a picnic there.

Found a couple of moles living in the compost! They have no eyes!
Looks like a lot of rain this coming week so we will have to get used to being inside again.

The view from my hammock

I swear I don't remember Spring being so beautiful. I am still really enjoying this nice weather, got to spend some time this afternoon relaxing in the hammock. Here are some pictures of the view from my hammock.

Perfect Last day of April


It was a really nice warm day so Henry and I did lots of walking. In the afternoon we went to Breithaupt Park to look at all the trilliums. And then after dinner we went out again with Daddy and saw lots of ducklings and explored some Waterloo trails that we hadn't found before.




And Henry is still exploring his hands too.

Warm Day!

Today we had a really nice warm spring day! We took full advantage of it of course. Well except for sleeping in till close to 11. [Didn't stay up late the night before or anything, we just both love a good sleep-in.] We took Kevin's bike in for a quick repair and walked around the nice houses part of Uptown while we waited. Then we rode our bikes to Kiwanis Park and had a picnic by the river and then walked a bit of the grand river trail. It was really nice.

When we got home we moved our 3 seater swing out of the garage into the backyard for the season and sat there reading. Later we brought out sangria and chips and salsa and bean dip. It was so nice to be spending time relaxing outdoors again! I also hung up my bird house. I've included a picture of the first snowdrop poking up out of the ground and of the birdhouse and the swing.
