Wow, are we looking forward to spring. Yesterday was 60 degrees here in Michigan and we took advantage of every minute of it. Here the girls are trying to get rid of the last of the snow.
Today the temperatures are down to 50 and by the weekend it will be back to winter-like temperatures but today was truly a gift and we are so thankful.

Mommy's little helper in his rain boots. He had a great time helping to wash the car and Mommy only got a little bit wet.

A trip to the zoo was a welcome addition to our day as we soaked in the sunshine that has seemed so non-existant for some time now.

This past weekend, Eric had a chance to go to Chicago with 5 of his friends/former roommates from Taylor University. While he was gone we decided to pack our weekend full with helping some very dear friends leave snowy Michigan for sunny Atlanta, taking swimming lessons at one of the local pools and most importantly to a couple of of my children, a trip to Build a Bear to celebrate two very important milestones in our family.

What a boy! We walked in and I and my daughters were immediately drawn to the cute puppies, kittens and, of course, the adorable bears. My son chose the scaley (not even soft and cuddly) dinosaur. The dinosaur then proceeded to growl and try to take bites out of innocent bystanders. Byran's dinosaur was a gift in celebration of potty-training.

Ashlynn is helping to stuff Lilly, the adorable little black dog. Lilly was a gift for Ashlynn's decision to give up her "diapee" that she's always slept with. We are so proud of her for taking that step on her own.
