Our geese are back...

Despite having a couple inches of snow over night, the temps warmed up nicely today.  When we got home from work/daycare, we realized that our geese are back!!

Looking back to last year, they came back on March 5th.  And the year before that, they came back on March 7th.  (That's one perk to having a blog, you remember all these silly details!)  Anyway, I was surprised today, thinking they were early, but I guess they are right on track!

I sure hope this means the snow is over, and spring is on it's way.  I am seriously done with the snow!

And just for kicks and giggles.

Landon has had so much fun playing with some of my vintage cameras lately.  When I went to get my camera to take a picture of the geese, he had to get his camera as well.

To get these doors done, we moved them up to our garage.  When they are in your face, and its inconvenient to park outside, you will work on them every night!  

Sunday...

This morning, the boys (Jer, my Dad and my brother Randy) got up bright and early and hit the road to head to Waterloo.  Their mission, Home Improvement Stores.  I can't wait for these trips to come to an end!  Because they were on the road by 7 am, they were back before lunch.  In the meantime, Landon and I let my Mom sleep in and then headed to her house to pick her up. 

You see, Mom hasn't hardly left the house since her surgery over a week ago, and was getting a little stir crazy!  She is doing so AWESOME!  She is walking so well, and I'm so proud of how well she is recovering!

They boys got back around lunch time.  I threw together a quick lunch while my Dad helped Jer bring all our doors up to the garage.  (Our garage is now a staining/varnishing station).  More on that later...  After lunch, it was time for Grandma and Grandpa to head home.  Not before a round of candy land though!

Candy Land

One of Landon's favorite obsessions games right now, is Candy Land.  I bought it, unsure if he was able to understand the concept of the game, but he caught on quickly.  We play it several times every morning and evening.
