Finally it looks like spring!



I thought I would start by showing off some pictures I took of some of the flowers in my yard. One is a flower from our tree and the other is my forget me knots that haven't quit bloomed yet.
Isaac started working nights last week which has been a little hard to adjust to. The first night he worked I had something a little scary happen. Around ten thirty I let the dogs out in the back yard and like usual Bella went running out and ran into the bushes, she likes to scare the birds that are usually in them. Well all of a sudden she starts yelping and crying and thrashing around. My dogs are like my babies so I did what any mother would do, I went running out to save my baby. I only got like half way across the yard before she got away from what ever had her. I checked her from head to toe and could not find any marks but she was shaking really bad. She is fine but it totally ruined my night. It took me forever to stop shaking myself. I never did see what is was that got her, we are thinking a snake or a cat. I realize now that if it had been something big I would have been screwed.
We went to Stephanie's (Isaac's sister) house last Saturday for dinner and a little Rock Band. It was a lot of fun. Hazel really liked Jared (Stephanie's husband). She played the drums with him when we were playing Rock Band and then when she had to go to the bathroom she asked Jared to watch her baby for her while she was gone. Hazel also played some dress up and they let her take the boots home with her.


We have been spending most of our time outside enjoying the nice weather.



I think Evan is going to grow up to be a vet. He loves animals. He will try and give any dog a kiss no matter how big it is. This is our neighbors dog, Buttercup. I could not keep him away from the fence. I finally gave him a milkbone to give to Buttercup so she would know Evan was a friend.
Hazel was playing in the bird bath saying that she was cooking for the birds. Funny little girl.
Evan playing in the mud after I watered and trying to share some with dad.
This is the first time the boys played in the sprinklers. I thought that they would be scared of it so I didn't bother putting them in swim suits. Boy was I wrong. They loved it! And got totally soaked!
