Catching up on pictures once again…March-April 2015

It has been over three months since I have posted any pictures, so I'm going to try to play catch-up again. This first group of pictures covers March through April. 

Aricca's Birthday
Clearly, we just keep getting older! Doug and the kids made me a very cool birthday cake with a pyramid, a sea monster, princesses, pirates, and lots of other cool things! : )

 And, we got to start the day out on the silly side with a little dress up during our morning pancakes.


Nadya!
Nadya WillaMerie Dums was born two weeks after my birthday. From what I hear, she is the sweetest and sleepiest baby ever. We can't wait to meet her later this summer!!

Easter
Our winter was so long and cold that we still had lots of snow left outside at Easter. But, it didn't slow the kids down. If anything it sped up the Easter egg hunt - the eggs were awfully easy to see on the white snow.

Gathering maple sap and boiling syrup
We again helped the Curriers collect sap and make maple syrup this spring. The season was very short, but we were able to make a lot of Fancy grade syrup. The kids just love being able to drink the sap as it pours out of the holding tank.

Spring Break trip to the Ocean
Despite the coldness of the winter and beginning of spring, we had an incredibly warm spring break. I took the kids to the ocean, and they loved reacquainting themselves with the tide pools, finding seashells, and wading in the water.

Robert's Baptism
We also took a quick trip to Long Island for Robert's baptism. Robert is a really sweet little boy, and Doug is excited to be his Godfather.
