Is it Spring yet?

The past two days of 70 degree weather has made me believe that we may actually get out of this long, cold winter.  It has been a welcome sight to see my flowers coming up and have the sun on my face.  We really are alive, but I haven't been very motivated to blog.  I really wish I did it more because this is our family history, but oh well.  I am posting a bunch of random pictures from the last month.  We have been busy as usual, but I only have pictures of a few things.  I guess I need to get better at taking pictures along with blogging. :)

 I was trying to grow Ashlyn's bangs out, but gave up because she just doesn't have much hair up front so her forehead is really high.  I cut bangs again.  I think she looks cute!

 Nate finally convinced me to go skiing with him and Gavin.  It had been 20 years since I last skied and yes, my body is 20 years older.  I was pretty stiff and sore the next day from my few falls, but after a few days I felt fine.  I'm glad I finally did it, but don't know if my body could take skiing on a regular basis. :)

 Proof that I was on skis. 

 On the ski lift.

 Liam has lost both of his front teeth in the last month or so.  They came out with enough time in between for one of the new teeth to grow in, so he didn't end up with a huge space in the front.  But as you can see from the picture just having one gone left a pretty big hole.  I should also mention that Nate pulled both of them out.  Liam just doesn't have the courage yet. :)

 Just another Sunday ready for church.  I think Liam is modeling.

 A Sunday afternoon spent playing angry birds.

Gavin had his first experience with piano federation.  He spent months learning and memorizing two pieces to play for the judges.  Sadly it happened to fall on one of his skiing lesson days, so he had to rush from his lesson to his performance and didn't get a chance to practice his songs.  He didn't play his best, but still got a Superior rating.  He also had a recital the next week to play the songs for us.  We took video, but for some reason I can't remember how to get it on here.  I'll work on it. 
Bring on Spring!
