it's been a wild week of absolutely perfect weather [sunny & 75], and back to winter / freezing our tails off at softball last night. we're ready for patio weather- spring, summer, sunshine & a less rigid schedule! 

eloise's family portrait- melt my heart!

and the big daddy/daughter school sock hop tonight! talk about anticipation all week long! lucy & jon went to pizza with friends and danced the night away. our sweet kindergartener absolutely crashed when she walked in the door at 915, but not before holding back tears saying 'i wish daddy daughter dance were every night' <3

TGIF!!!!!

1st pony rider of the whole 2019 season on opening day at the farmstead! big 3 year old :)

dancing class tuesday!

lucy never uses the napkins in her lunchbox- they arrive back home in pristine condition at the end of each school day ;)

ready for warmer days & open windows- we're getting there!

1st softball practice- absolutely love the big girls' activities being together. lucy was so proud to introduce eloise to the kindergarteners she hasn't yet met. their team is comprised of incoming kindergarteners & current kindergarteners- darling and they had a ball!

cheerleader!

lucy has today off school & i'm just itching for slow summer days with my trio-

this afternoon they set up a 'snack shack' for anyone who may happen to walk into our house ;) eloise wrote this sign completely on her own- "thank you. snacks. welcome guests." the sweetest.

TGIF!
