Neighborhood pot painting/flower planting activity:

While Amelia and I painted Gavin hung out with the mama duck:

First swim of the season:

Neighbors had their big trees cut down - we lost our shade but less chance of a tree falling on our house during a storm.

Love when all the art comes home from school:

We've attended a local Methodist church a few times now. The kids love the youth programs there.

Easter!

Jake got a new car - a 2020 Ford Escape. Its super fun to drive.

Selfies!

Gibbs Garden/ Bigfoot Museum

 Gibbs Gardens was awesome. It is huge, about the size of an amusement park but filled with different gardens. The Japanese garden was our favorite. We walked around for almost 4 hours including a hike up a mountain covered in daffodils. There are over 12 million daffodils, the largest display in the country. 

 

Gavin was in his element at the bigfoot museum. We got free military admission so the kids got to buy stuff at the giftshop to pay back the generosity. Gavin got a bigfoot bank and a bigfoot mood ring. Amelia got a mood ring and a back scratcher. 

Found some old playhouses behind the cabin
