Some familial visits

Last night we had dinner with Daddy Geek's aunt and uncle who happened to be on the East Coast for a conference and business meeting. They came over to our place and were introduced to Geek Girl's menagerie of stuffed animals and then we walked over to the local seafood place for dinner. We walked to the local ice cream place for dessert, but it was closed. It was a cool and misty night, but still nice enough to be out and about walking.

Today Long Lost Cousin and her daughters came over. Geek Girl has been wanting to try painting with Jello and I thought that was a good activity to do with more than one child. We also dyed Easter Eggs and played. And we received our delivery of Girl Scout Cookies. East Coast Do-si-dos are darker than I remember.

Springtime!

It's the first day of spring and we are having a glorious day. Yes, we have neglected the blog with the snowstorms, grandparent visit, and achievement of seven years by Geek Girl. But we saw our first daffodils today and enjoyed the lovely 70+ deg F sunshine with a bike ride. Cherry blossoms are expected soon!
