From the Sublime to the Ridiculous

So March came in with a fury of snowfall--18 + inches of fury, in fact-- but the pendulum has quickly swung the other direction.  One week later it had almost all melted, and we have had multiple record-setting days of warm temps since then.  This weekend the kids and I were in shorts and playing out in the yard, and Ken was still having to ski!   Today we were in the 80s and we busted out the sprinkler.... ON MARCH 20TH!!!!! Crazy!

The first car wash of the season was on Monday, March 19.  :)

In the Midst of May

May is hustling by. Swimming lessons ended last week and baseball/T-ball season is in full swing. Ken's golf course is open and prepping for a big event tomorrow. With the monsoon-like rain lately we've had much thunder and lightning, too.  The irrigation took a jolt of lightning last night, translating into an extra-long day of work for Ken  today.

 It has been a bit warmer.  Yesterday it got to 83 degrees!  Needless to say we hurried home from school and played outside all evening.  The kids "washed" my car, splashed, and biked while I grilled dinner.  Then we enjoyed the first dinner on the deck of the season.  YAY!
