More Spring

Maybe I should say summer. It's been in the high 80s the past couple of days, and yesterday we ventured out to the Botanic Gardens during lunch. The Cherry Tree Tracker reported that the trees were in full bloom- and we didn't want to miss them. The annual cherry tree festival is this weekend, but it is always over crowded so we will probably skip it this year. (PLUS we have a very special one year old to celebrate!)

Here are some photos of the full bloom! (This is a Grape Hyacinth picture for Rachel.)

Last weekend we had a great time celebrating Bryan's father's 60th Birthday as well as his aunt's 56th Birthday. I didn't take my camera though so I've posted some of Kevin and Megan's photos. We had a great time at the 40th Annual Lewisburg Arts Festival where we saw Ephraim's artwork in the window of the Purple Platypus. We also went to see Barry's new baby cows, had a delicious Howard Langdon filet mignon meal and roasted marshmallows over the campfire under the stars. The boys are a riot and we loved spending time with them. (From now on we have to be careful that there's "no fake running" when we race Ephraim!)Ephraim's Green Grasshopper

Here's a newer picture of little Caleb and little Claire! (One of my readers has been asking for an update.) (These are their Mom and Dads' pictures...) Just three more weeks of grad school! ~ Til next time.
