Spring Fun

We have been enjoying the spring weather as much as possible. We've also been busy packing for our upcoming move (Kelly), studying for boards (Curt), and spending time with friends (ALL of us).

Here are Caden and Olivia enjoying a beautiful morning at Lincoln Memorial Gardens, where Dominic celebrated his fifth birthday. Caden, Olivia, and Dominic have been playing together since before they were two years old.

Cole enjoyed Dominic's party too. He especially liked checking out the turtles. Turtles have been a favorite animal of Cole's since a trip to Shedd Aquarium over a year ago.

We enjoyed a morning at Springfield's zoo with the boys' friend, Brady.
Here are the boys watching a playful wolverine. The boys asked which wolverine came first--the animal or Wolverine from the X-Men.
After zipping through the zoo, the boys had a great time playing at the zoo's playground.

We'll be leaving the playset behind when we move, so we've been trying to use it as much as possible. Here are the boys swinging with Nana and Papa.
Feels great to get outside!
