I’m not sure which youngling decided to wake me up early on a Sunday morning, but after getting them all something to eat they wanted to play.
This is what Redflare came downstairs to in the morning after sleeping in slightly.
I think she wandered the living room (closest area to the stairs) and then office (first doorway out of living room) and around through the kitchen where she found that scene.

This picture was taken April 13th… there was still snow out and it was still cold (hence the seedling picture yesterday that featured everything still growing inside too.
As we waited for the bus I decided to take a picture.
Unbuckled and parked, we were ready to charge the bus once it finally showed up.

Redflare called the trash pickup company once the snow melted and she had a chance to actually watch what they were (and weren’t) doing but between then and this picture every trash pickup day there would be quite a bit of stuff floating around the neighborhood.
On one such occasion sweet little Newbie picked up an offending item in each hand and walked it home after school to be properly disposed of.

Interestingly the elementary concerts were split up by ages/grades.
Yes, that meant we had to go to the elementary school twice in one week in the evening but at the same time, I appreciated that they weren’t trying to fit _everything_ into one night for the kids’ bedtimes sake.
They both enjoyed waving to us from the risers.
It’s amazing to me that little Newbie there is now in what I think was Little Miss’ first dress.

With TJ out of commission the egg decorating didn’t go as normally as years past, but the littles still seemed to appreciate coloring some.

Really, this one speaks for itself.

I can’t recall the backstory on this particular sweet treat now, the picture was edited about a month after Newbie’s birthday so that can’t be it…
These cookies and cream bars are a family favorite of all the littles though.
The appreciation on her sweet face is worth it.
