The big boys and Daddy are at a "Scout Lock In" tonight. By selling tickets to the annual pancake breakfast, Big Brother earned the right to stay up all night. Little Brother, as a first year scout, will only stay until midnight. They were looking forward to games in the gym, pizza, and snacks.
The girls made a tent with a card table and blankets and are sleeping in the bonus room. They were thrilled to use the jets in the tub tonight. There were so many bubbles, I couldn't see if they got all the mud off or not.
Nearly all the snow has melted AND we got some rain today. There is mud everywhere. Fortunately, it is black mud and washes well, unlike that North Carolina red clay mud that turned everything a shade of red.
When it was raining today it SMELLED like spring. I'm not going to look at the extended forecast tonight, so even if there is snow coming, I'm going to remain blissfully unaware.
After we feed the chicks Baby wants to walk, but not back to the house, to his swing! I'll have to see if I can find him some mudboots. I know Big and Little Brothers wore a tiny pair, perhaps they're in the attic. . .
Last night Daddy's volleyball team finished their season. We won't mention their win-loss record, they all had lots of fun.
Exchange Brother joined the track team and is starting to enjoy practices. He found running shoes and the largest gumball I've ever seen, last night on our shopping trip.
I need to make a bird list, this spring I've seen: Bald Eagle, Red Tailed Hawk, Canada Goose, Tundra Swan, Wild Turkey, Robin, Red Winged Blackbird, Common Loon, Wood Duck, Mallard, Pheasant and Great Blue Heron.
Tomorrow we plan to finish the renovations on the chicken coop, make some shelves in the shop, finish rounding up the paperwork for taxes and watch the Carolina basketball game.
