One last pic of spring break...and spring's busyness!

On the way back from Brandson we stopped in Iowa for the weekend at another one of my cousin's! We had a short stay there though, as we heard more snow was headed for them. So we left Saturday night...and got home late, but safely!

Here's a pic of Liem and Elliot (Liem is the baby copying his brother army crawl..)

My sister's family came for a weekend to visit us in the the cities! We took them downtown to a flower show, a model train museum, and played some card games with the girls!

Miranda on top smelling flowers, and Kaylee on the bottom smelling flowers. I have a similar picture of me Miranda's age doing the same thing..so I just had to have them do it:)

We've enjoyed a few twins games this spring!! This one against the LA Angels. They won all the games against them! We had pretty good seats at this game, thanks to our elders getting us free tickets:)

Here's my 10 minute project.. I wanted some flowers on our patio, but didn't want the bees. So I picked out some pretty flowers at a craft store....

Our blooming trees in the cities:)

Spring Break part 3

We spent a couple days in Brandson Missouri! It was way too short of a time there, because there is so much to see there! We had fun watching a few shows. The best one though, was called the Dixie Stampede. Its a big horse show, with music, dancing and entertainment! They also feed you quite a big meal while you watch the show. We toured one museum called Titantic..which made you feel as though you were on the ship yourself.

This was the view on the way to Brandson..still in Arkansas.

Here's the rest of the pictures of our hike in the hills of the Ozarks!

Here's an old house we checked out! Some houses you weren't sure if there was actually someone living in them..sometimes, there was a good possibility! This one, well there was a couch in it....

Spring Break part 1

We've had such a wonderful spring here in MN!! The trees are starting to bloom in light shades of green, the dandelions are coming by the dozens, and the little bugs are out...with the exception of the pesky mosquitoes which I'm glad aren't here YET. Len's discovering what he's allergic to here, and we're hoping to find out soon if its just bad allergies or Asthma. We've been very busy lately. I've wanted to get my blog updated, but my computer at home seems to have forgotten how to upload photos. So I'm on my parents computer this weekend..its SO much faster too:)

Here's our March trip to Arkansas. We drove through a huge snowstorm all the way from Iowa to Arkansas. Once we got out of the car at a travel station and were pelted with ice! Luckily, we stayed on the road the whole way! Len's such a good driver:)



Here's Len feeding my cousin's little boy, Jacobi. He's about 8 months old now maybe.

We stayed in Bentonville at my cousin's for several days. We learned a few things about Walmart!

We went on a couple walks...here's a picture of one just in town..but it was really pretty!

Here's our other walk way up on a hill top headed for a beautiful overlook!
