There Goes the Sun

Yep, the next day is snow and rain.  So we had a rainy day inside and the boys painted - it might be safe to say that I didn't pay close enough attention while I was doing the dishes.  At least we have hardware floors and we use washable paint  But I think that I LOVE these paintings more than anything else they have ever produced.

 

Here Comes the Sun

It was a beautiful spring day - beautiful enough for even the babe to go out and play in the soft dirt.  As you can see he sampled some of the goods - he wouldn't be a Crump boy if he didn't.  The boys were so happy to be able to dig in the dirt instead of try to chip away the frozen mud.  The flowers are starting to come up, I'm just afraid that the cold isn't done yet - I hope that none of my later flowers get killed.

Happy Anniversary

Marc and I have never been big on anniversaries or Valentine's or anything of that sort, but for some reason - this year we both decided that it was time that we celebrate in some way.  Marc sent me my second batch of flowers ever (the 1st one was a heart break - because when I brought them home from work sometime during the 1st year I dropped them and the vase and most of the flowers broke - with my little heart).  This time they still remain intact even with all of the extra "helpers" in our home.  My plans for a surprise evening at home were ruined when Scotty got an ear infection - so I couldn't take him to Rose Marie's house for the evening.  But then Grandma called at the last minute and said that she just remembered our Anniversary and could she take the boys - she doesn't have any kids to infect - and she was willing.  So we did actually get our evening together - it was nice and relaxed.  We cooked together and watched part of a terrible movie together - even with the bad movie (which we didn't finish) it was still nice to just be together with no interruptions - but then it seemed too quiet and we went and pick up our favorite noise-makers and brought them home to finish our celebration.

It's so exhausting to be a baby. . .

It's About Time

I finally finished my wall clock - it has been "in the process" for so long that I don't even remember when I started - I just know that I bought the clock mechanism over a year ago - sad, but now it is finished and I think that it looks pretty good.  It is about 4 x 4 ft.  Hmm what unfinished project will I complete next?
