Beautiful Spring Days

We have finally been feeling the warmth of the sunshine again and have been able to walk around the yard with no shoes on to feel the grass beneath our feet.  It is so nice after such a LONG and drawn out winter.  Thankfully the warm weather came at a perfect time to enjoy many fun things around Lexington.

First up, playtime with our neighbors...




Our friends had a cookout before the final four game, we were pretty excited and all the kids were dressed in blue to cheer for their favorite Wildcats!  We won that game and it was on to the championship.  Grayson even learned the UK chant...
Sadly we lost the championship game, I thought we had it in the bag.  Maybe next year.

On to more fun outdoors....Daddy played his first kickball game of the season at Jacobson Park....
These boys were too interested in Grayson to play attention to the game.

Next, feeding the ducks at Jacobson...





Then we went to Breakfast with the Babies.....

We bought tickets to this event a couple of months ago, we heard so many good things about it and knew Owen would love it.  It is a breakfast at Shaker Village in Harrodsburg, Kentucky.  After you eat in the dining area of this historic hotel, you can walk around the beautiful grounds and pet baby animals, sometimes they even let you feed the animals.



We met up with some friends and had a derby race...

 How cute are these three kiddos?  We have known one another since they were 6 months old, just babies!


Then it was off to see more animals...





This was such a perfect activity to kick off the beginning of spring.

After breakfast with the babies, everyone was wiped out so we went home to nap.  After we (and I mean all four of us) rested, we walked to Jacobson Park for Kite Fest.

These two love each other SO much!  They giggled the whole walk to the park.
Our friends Eddie and Lisa came in for the weekend from Tennessee, they went Keeneland in the morning and came to kite fest with us afterwards.  Owen and Grayson LOVED having baby Natalie at our house to play.  I am sure they will fight over this gorgeous lady one day.


We then went to our first birthday party at the park this year - to celebrate this little guy's second birthday.....

Then after wearing shorts and sandals all weekend, I woke up to this Tuesday morning...

The warm weather is returning soon and we have many things to look forward to this Easter weekend!!
