Anyway, Friday afternoon we attended the elementary school carnival after playing outside with Evan's new wagon. We had a nice time fishing for ducks, doing the Donut Walk, The Lollipop Tree, Weight Guessing and of course no visit to a carnival is complete with out enjoying a snow cone. We did win the Donut Walk after four rounds and Evan took home some nice toys made in China! :) Kallie babysat for us Friday night and we went on a REAL date...dinner and a movie. We saw 21 and it was good to get out.
Saturday, we headed to Rochester to go to the mall. Rochester is about 45 minutes from Austin and where the infamous Mayo Clinic is located. Evan handled the shopping better than Alex! It's literally like the old movies where you pack up to go into town. As I was packing the car, I saw a sign that SPRING was finally here! A duck in our yard! To my surprise, we have 3 ducks in our yard--2 male and 1 female. It's strange since we have no bodies of water, unless you count the puddles. Alex already knew of our visitors, he said they've been in our yard every morning this week. (Note: He leaves 2 1/2 hours before me for work!)
I am thinking positive for spring and we are getting our version of April Showers today...except the rain is now freezing rain with the chance of changing yet again into that dreaded four letter word...SNOW! I hope this is my last posting where I speak of the weather...I hope!!!
