We went to Minnesota to visit Ryan, Marianne, and Ben during the last weekend of March. We had so much fun at their house! Their newly finished basement is amazing and the boys played so well together. We ate lots of good food, played some great board games, and went to a couple of parks. I did not take many pictures - too busy having a good time! The boys did great on the 5 hour car ride there and back, which made the trip much less stressful! We'll definitely have to do it again next year!
The boys and I have gone on some small hiking adventures during the week while Chris is at work. We've gone to 2 local nature preserves and done hikes a little over a mile long. They do great and have so much fun! Their favorite things are looking for animals, especially by ponds, hiking on the boardwalks, climbing towers, and seeing the animals at the nature center. They both LOVE the turtles, but Jack has a special fondness for them. He will tell anyone who will listen about turtles, snakes and how you have to be quiet to see them :) It's nice to be able to get out and hike so easily with both of them! Hopefully this summer we can go to Highcliff and be a little more adventurous :)
On Easter this year we visited Grandma Reinsel in Madison. We went to 3 different parks because the weather was so beautiful. Grandma planned a special outdoor Easter Egg hunt for the boys, which they loved. We ate some delicious food and bought some fun board games at a game store in Madison. It was a great weekend! We're still trying to get through the Easter candy here - luckily the boys are willing to share with Chris & I.
