I had to go in and edit our ages on the sidebar over there, on account of I am now TWENTY and have been for over two entire months, Allen is now SEVENTEEN, and Abigail is nine already!
We're gettin' old.
In other news, it is Spring!
We've had rain and gorrrrgeous days lately.
Today, we all went out side and played catch and hit some tennis balls with the bat. Aidan is pro. We need to get some video proof of his amazingness. Anna did really, really well, too. I just needed to do some bragging about the two little ones.
We also played a game we made up years ago called Capture, or Jail. It might also be called Cops and Robbers... In any event, during one round I was totally the last free person, and I would have gotten away with jail breaking my people, but then our dumb dog gave away my hiding place! I was captured, and the game was over.
Earlier in the day I went on a bike ride with Anna, Abby and A.T. There were lots of hills, so in the beginning I was explaining to Anna in particular that we needed to go fast on the easy parts. After making it up the hill that leads down to our driveway, the road leveled out. I noticed that Anna was already falling behind and it looked like she was going to walk with her bike again. I called back to her, "Anna, baby cake, you really need to keep up on the easy parts!" She got fully back onto her bike and came zooming up, explaining, "I had a wedgie!"
I'm so looking forward to this summer.
But you know what? I'm loving this time, this now time, too. =)
