Here's how we've been celebrating spring this week. In the 5 days since we've returned from NY we have: cleaned our basement and created Rec Room interation #8,000 (these teens really need a place to hang out!), snuggled an emotional cat a lot (she missed us!), had a major winter storm on April 19th, picked up 6 new baby chicks at Meyer Hatchery, and taken our spring photos at Lakeview. Phew! Gotta fit it all in as it's projected to be in the 80's this weekend so we'll be spending all our time on the beach then...
Ah, spring in Cleveland. Never a dull moment!
Monday:
Also, not pictured, 6 hours spent in our basement. It does not matter how much we clean and move things around, that place is never going to be photogenic. But I do think we've achieved "less gross and ok for teens" level, especially once we pick up the new-used couch for gaming, to go with the upgraded TV.
Tuesday:
Winter returns!
(probably the sketchiest road conditions all season! On April 19th!)
Then right after school we drove through the continuing wintry mix to pick out our new babies at Meyer's. No time like the present. With our flock down to 4 after the hard winter and the predator issues, the kids and I thought we definitely needed to raise some new ladies. Nat seems to think 4 chickens is enough but he tends to be over-ruled when it comes to animals around here, poor man. We set out to pick 4 chicks, and returned with 6, so not too bad in my opinion.
Wednesday: The Reaching Heights spelling bee!
The children were not particularly enthused about a photo shoot at the cemetery.
