Spring... ???

Could it really be... Spring?

We had a fairly low key weekend, with everyone relaxing from being sick throughout last week with not so fun colds. Happy to say, that I *think* we are all officially on the mend! 

My sister, Jayda was in town for the weekend. It was so fun and great to see her - as we hadn't seen her since Jack's Birthday, last November!!! Both Jack and Maggie LOVED spending time with Aunt Jayda, and she seemed to LOVE spending time with them, as well. Jack especially loved that Aunt Jayda would play any game he wanted... and would even be his own personal jungle gym. :) We were happy to be able to spend Friday evening with her... and she also stopped by on Sunday on her way home. We can't wait to see her again!!!

 Lots of Love, Hugs and Kisses for Aunt Jayda!!!

Maggie also loved Aunt Jayda, but, as usual... Maggie is a girl who walks to the beat of her own drum... and preferred be more of an observer, that a participant in the human jungle gym.

On Saturday night, we were invited to have dinner with our great neighbors who live across the street. Thankfully, we all felt well enough to head over there for a GREAT dinner, and lots of fun! They have 3 darling girls, and their youngest just turned 2 - so she and Maggie are just about the same age... and seem to love playing together. Jack adores their two older girls, ages 5 & 7. They are both so sweet to him (and Maggie)... always inviting him to come along and play with them, and making sure to never let him feel left out. We are so happy to have not only such great neighbors, but great friends.

Getting Ready to head across the street for Dinner and Fun

Maggie all ready to go to friend's house for dinner...

Dress - Check.

Favorite Sparkly Shoes - Check.

Baby Doll - Check.

Ready to go!

Ummm... I'm ready... what's the big hold up?



Ok, family... let's get a move on...

or I'm just gonna head over by myself... well, I'll have baby and blankie with me, of course.

Jack's READY!

Thomas boots on (all by himself AND on the correct feet)!

Let's go... all the way across the street. :)

Yesterday, we decided we all had to get out of the house... and so we went for a nice drive in the sunshine... just checking out some different neighborhoods that we hadn't seen before, and enjoying the gorgeous weather. When we got home, we walked down to the park for bit, and the munchkins had so much fun ... swinging away!!! It was so nice to have a day of sun, and we hear this week is supposed to be filled with good weather... we are hoping this is true, and can't wait to have more park and outside time!

Jackson swinging away...

He is learning to "pump" with his legs... and is very determined to swing "all by himself".

*NOTE: Jackson did something SO SUPER GREAT yesterday... a poo on the potty! We are so proud of our big boy! Hoping going on the potty trend continues!!!

Maggie LOVES the swings ... and is always very sad when it's time to go!

We are so happy to have such a nice park so close to our house, and look forward to many more fun times there this summer!

I did FINALLY finish the spring wreath, that I started over a month ago! I barely had any of it done... so I decided I'd better get it done this weekend before Spring was GONE!

I think it turned out cute... it isn't exactly how I envisioned it...

... and I have no idea where I'll hang it. But, it was fun to make! :) I'm a bit in love and obsessed with making frayed fabric flowers lately... so I decided I needed something to put them on... these ones turned out cute on the wreath. I also really like the neutral colors --- so it could possibly be a year-round wreath :)  That is, if I ever figure out a place to hang it!

(not the best pics... since it isn't actually hanging up... :p)

We hope you all had a wonderful weekend, and a great week ahead!

We do ask for BIG Prayers for my Grandmother, Bette. She is having surgery on Wednesday, due to a cancerous mass on one of her kidneys. They will be removing the entire kidney - as it is a less invasive surgery than attempting to just remove the mass, itself. We are all Praying the surgery goes well, and so does her recovery. We were happy to visit her this morning for a few hours... as she'll be out of commission for about 3 weeks after her surgery.

Lots of Love, Hugs and Prayers to Grandma/Nana Bette.

All our Love,

The Weeks Family
