April - Blizzards, 70 degrees, singing and towers - what a month!

Spring has finally sprung in Duluth (well, it's ALMOST sprung). If you look really really close at the trees you might see buds. MOST of the snow has melted, but there is still muddy, slushy, icy patches under trees. We've been able to get out and enjoy the gorgeous weather we had the last week and a half. (but alas, today it is sleety, raining and snowing intermittently-sigh).

The Saturday before Easter we took the family out Enger Tower and Leif Erickson Park to get some video of "towers" for our Vacation Bible Camp promo video (The Tower of Truth). And just this Friday we took Creedon and Jonas out to Chester Creek to test out our new frame pack baby carrier we got for Jonas. I must say - Bryan says it's mighty comfy! And hopefully Jonas will not be able to climb out of this one!!! We found it on Craigslist - of course we just saw another one for sale for far cheaper than we paid (but, that's Murphy's Law - and it was a good deal either way). On Easter, we went to our friends, the Mains' for lunch. They had an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids - OUTSIDE!!!! (last year it was cold and wet out). Jonas LOVED it. Winter re-hid eggs for him several times, before we finally had to come in. He threw a major fit when he had to come in. - of course!

This Sunday Winter was able to sing "special music" for church with Bryan. She sang "I Don't Know" from Enter the Worship Circle 3. She LOVES that song, and sings it all the time. She did a great job - despite nerves. I did record it, even though I didn't want it to be a "talent show" type of thing. I think I was discreet enough :)
