Spring Time Happenings

It's always hard to believe how fast time flies.  This spring was unique and different in so many ways: no soccer, no baseball, no end of school year celebrations.  Even though our events were cancelled and life was a little more quiet, time still flew by.  We have been challenging ourselves by trying new things, staying active, and spending as much time with family as we can.  So one night enjoyed ourselves on the boat together with pizza and a sunset.







 Another adventure we fit in was a trip on the Queen with Grandma Nel.  The wind was blowing but the ride was smooth and fun to take in.  The last time we made time for this ride was when Brooks was only 7 months old.


The kids also learned how quickly litter can add up...we took some time on a Friday picking up litter around Spirit Lake.  They began to get excited each time they found something to pick up and often uttered, "C'mon people use the trash cans!"


Along with the end of the school year and beginning of summer, we welcome in our full month of celebrations.  Dad started us out with his birthday May 23.  Bennett made him breakfast, blueberry scones, and Marie made him a delicious pie and we all got to enjoy it together.  

With the end of May sneaking up on us came the end of the school year and the anticipation of summer!




We all learned a lot with our home school experience this spring...these kids were troopers but they are definitely hoping for a regular school year starting in the fall!
