DAY 12: Finally, a nice Spring weekend!

Ahhh...it's beautiful here today! About 75 and sunny. A perfect day for getting Spring chores done. But before we could do that, we went fishing! Today was the annual fishing derby in town. There were probably about 400 kids from town, up to age 15. They give away great prizes...even X-Boxes! Alas, the fish weren't biting on our side of the pond, but EJ had a great time and got a bubble-gum machine as a prize.





Then, we came home and decided to clean off the porch. While we were at it, we pulled down all of EJ's outdoor toys and some of the bigger baby toys and equipment - walking toys, the exersaucer, and the high chair. Here's what it looked like after EJ pulled it all into the yard. I told her it looked like we owned a preschool or something.




Here's a picture of her new desk...it's finally in her room, and you can see that she has moved in all of her supplies. She's going to get our computer chair, just as soon as we find a new one for the family room!




And finally, here's EJ on her new bike. It's an early birthday present, as she was in desperate need of a bigger one. It's the first one she's had with gears and brakes on the handles.
