Lots of end-of-the-year activities to keep us busy these days, so I apologize for my infrequent updates!  Here are a few pics from last week's homeschool square dancing / barn dance lessons (SO fun...thanks Jessica for the invite!)  Then a sunny but cool day at the park.  Since that day, we've been hitting near 80 for temps, so the shorts and t-shirts are FINALLY out at least part time!  The grass is GREEN and the trees are blooming!  Love it! 

Tomorrow is Brenin's birthday, and we decided to take a little weekend getaway instead of having a big party.  She LoVeS to stay in hotels and chose Chicago as a destination.  She said she wants to "eat cake in bed," and who am I to argue with the birthday girl??  So, we're off to the windy city to eat cake in bed (we'll catch a museum and a little shopping and R&R too!)  :-)
