Greenway fun!

And they're off!


A quick stop to pose on the Greenway!



Sunday was such a beautiful day to be outside at the Greenway. We decided to go over and get some exercise! Amelia has recently learned how to ride the Dora bike with the training wheels! It is amazing that she is riding that already...it was only a few months ago that Ella had outgrown it! Amelia has so much fun on that bike. She was singing away as she rode on by...too cute!

Ella has been mastering the roller skates that she received for her birthday from Meme and Papa last September. She was excited to test out her skills at the Greenway. I have to admit...she is pretty good! After a bad fall a couple weeks ago on her scooter, we made sure that she had her protective gear on today. We also made sure not to go down any big hills and we made it without any injuries! YEAH!

March 1 snowfall

Last Sunday we awoke to a rare winter wonderland. Drew and I saw some snow the night before, but never thought that there would be 5 inches! They did cancel 8:30 service at church, so Ella and Amelia had fun playing in the "white stuff". Ella was out for about 2 hours playing with the neighbors. I have endless memories of playing in the snow while growing up in Northern Michigan. I love it when they get to have a taste of that...even if it is only in 5 inches of snow for one day, not 5 feet of snow for 6 months! What a fun, unexpected gift for them!
