Special Guests

The Cox Family stayed in the "cottage" for a few days this week. After they left this morning, we did our routine cleaning. While changing the sheets on the bed their two daughters shared, we found three special guests snuggling under the covers.

Corinne and Melissa, don't worry. We are taking good care of your friends! Very soon you will all be reunited! We will be sending them in the mail so be looking for a package.

Signs of Spring

Ever so slightly spring is starting to emerge! The grass is starting to turn green, our pussy willow out front is beginning to bud, and crocuses are peeking through the dirt. Perhaps the most convincing evidence is the arrival of the Sandhill Cranes, who make their yearly migration flight north for the summer. Today is the first day of spring break for our two youngest girls and our oldest, who is in college, is just finishing up her week long break. The weather is slowly warming up and we are preparing for oodles of spring projects.
