March - Spring and Spring Break

The daffodils are happy, but short lived.

Canyon and I had our one and done ice cream at Cool Cats. Too expensive and I'd always rather have a Blizzard anyway.

 

Liam learned a trick at his cousin's birthday party! He is going to be ready for Nana and Papa's pool.

St. Patrick's Day!

For Spring Break, we headed right up to Sahara's and went to Silver Dollar City. The weather was great but it was crowded. Several lines were 130-140 minutes long and that was too long to wait in. 

Nana went on a bunch of junior rides with Liam and Sahara and Canyon did a big roller coaster and the giant swing.

I didn't get a picture of them on it but it's crazy scary.

Then we had lunch/dinner at the most crowded diner we could ever happen to come across. Doesn't look crowded in this picture, but behind us the line goes out the door.

It was also World Down Syndrome Day so we wore our shirts.

Sensory Play had an egg hunt, craft and snack at the Park.

They also had a photographer there to get some cute shots.

February - Farm Fun, Night to Shine, Sunrise Showing Off

We got to visit the farm again to see all the happy faces. 

They have 2 Kunekune pigs now that are adorable.

Night to Shine 2026 is in the books!

February gives us pretty sunrises.

January - Snow Storm Fern

 Well, here we go. We were expecting 1 or 2 days out for school/work but we lost the whole week.

It happened over night so we woke up to a winter wonderland. 4ish inches of snow and then for round 2, 3ish inches of sleet.

Hippie was not a fan the 1st morning.

We tried food coloring in water bottles but I couldn't get Canyon to participate much.

Good news is that we didn't lose power. We did have a frozen sink and toilet but a few hours with a space heater in the bathroom and they were fine again. I left the space heater on for that room for the next several days and it was fine for the rest of the week.

The Hulls had fun at their house too. They have a great slope area around the corner from their house for sledding.

  

Turns out with the new dog-years chart, Hippie and I are both 56 this year.
