Spring Update


The past month has been full of fun nights and weekends and even some project time (if you can imagine!).

Our basement is almost entirely finished, less some trim and doors and decorations, I suppose.  We will eventually get everything finished but we are certainly enjoying having a big play space and “carpet” and the “ABC’s Room”.  Here are some updated photos of our progress:






 

We enjoyed a wonderful Easter with Thatcher and the Sherlin clan.  Thatcher loved looking for eggs and having treats!  He liked the jelly beans but continued to call them “m’s” all week – I guess that’s what we get for usually only having M&M’s as our household treat.



Other highlights of our few weeks have included a pizza party for Mommy’s birthday, the return of Grandma and Grandpa Sherlin from Arizona, a trip to Anderson’s Nursery to see the animals near Easter, playing outside in the sandbox, throwing rocks in the lake, going for walks, and getting all of our projects done.  We have also enjoyed a lot of time with friends and family and have even been able to enjoy a couple of fires in the pit already!



We hope for more nice weather and look forward to getting the garden planted and a few more “to-do’s” done in the coming weeks.  And or course our biggest adventure is also getting closer.  Baby Phoenix is scheduled to arrive in just two more months (if not before).
