Springtime pets

We have had lots of excitement around here with springtime pets. For Christmas, Leo got a caterpillar/butterfly kit and a tadpole/frog kit from Gran and Grandpa. We ordered the critters last month, so we have enjoyed watching them grow. Somehow I missed pictures of the frog.

We released the butterflies last week.

A brief moment of sibling happiness...

We have really enjoyed eating outside pretty much every night for the last month. It was 90 degrees today (May 5th....I'm typing this and scheduling it to post later), so I know this is coming to an end. It's so nice to sit outside and enjoy the evening. The kids can come and go and graze on their food. So glad we have a little yard to enjoy.

We had a pleasant meal at a restaurant!

Last Saturday evening, we were going to Plano to take family pictures. The pictures were at 6:30, so we decided to do something crazy stupid and go to a restaurant. The weather was pleasant, so we chose a restaurant where we could sit on the patio and the kids would have something to look at for entertainment. We actually had a great time! We're hoping we can join the land of the living again sometime soon!

On the way home, we saw this crazy monster truck on 121.

We stopped at a self-serve yogurt place in Lewisville. The boys love this.

Homemade Slider Buns

We had sliders (small hamburgers) recently, and I decided to make my own rolls. I followed a recipe on the King Arthur Flour site. They were delicious and very easy to make.
