It has been a wet, cold and windy spring here in North Dakota. I keep telling the kids "April showers..." but we've had to revise that a little as the showers continued well into May. But finally the forecast calls for a week or more of sunshine with highs in the 60s - it's a good thing because Haley's summer vacation starts in one week!We all got to go to Haley's school one afternoon to watch the Kindergarten Music Program. They had worked so hard and put on a great performance, with sign language and everything. We were glad that Haley was finally well enough to go to school so that she didn't miss out.
Jake was uncharacteristically mellow during the performance...must have been because he was coming down with pneumonia...
Jake loves to watch others open gifts - he was so excited for me to open mine on Mother's Day.
Haley made me a beautiful butterfly for Mother's Day; nothing is sweeter than those handmade gifts from the kids.
We were lucky enough to have Rob's parents come for a visit this last weekend. Although it was cold and windy most of the time, it did warm up enough the last day for us to walk over to the park and fly kites. Jake thought it was the greatest.
Haley readies the kite...
Mom and Dad Wood - we're glad they're willing to travel all this way to see us!
Mom W. gives it a try.
Rob helps Jake steer the kite. Hurray for warmer weather!
