Take a peek at the "Spring" in our step

Spring run off in our valley

Playing in the mud

Our "villa on the lake"

The critters come out to play (and the bugs are starting to make their appearances too)

Friends come to visit our neck of the woods

Easter Egg Hunt at the Hildebrand Farm

Check out my red neck church ensemble. One should never be far from a pair of rubber boots when you live in Alberta in spring time.

Dade & Matia's first concert
We were guests of Krista & Eli (thanks guys!)

Sharon & Bram!!
I know I was way more excited about this concert than the kids. I grew up listening to Sharon, Lois & Bram and watching their t.v. program on CBC. I knew all the songs and I sang them out with gusto at the concert. I think I saw Dade hiding under his seat at one point. He spent the remainder of the time trying to convince me that we needed to go and get some food. Matia has an appreciation for "culture" and got into the spirit of things, even bravely going down to the floor and doing actions to one of the songs.

Skinamarinkinkydinkydink, skinamarinkydoo, I love you!

Trevor the Dragon Tamer!

We've had a great April. Now that the sun is out, or at least the snow is gone, we've been able to get out and enjoy the great outdoors. In fact I even got a sun burn today! I guess I better crack open the SPF30 and soak up that Vitamin D. Happy Spring everyone, I'm off to bang off my rubber boots, swat some misquitos and put aloe vera gel on my forehead.
