Winter's End and Spring Beginnings

After the church Easter Egg Hunt 3.27.16

Cooper and I have recently returned from Spring Break at Nana's House, and despite the beautiful weather we are recovering from colds (hopefully our last of the season!). So, before we start spending every waking hours in our happy place (out-of-doors) we thought we would put up a quick post about our winter fun. We hope you are starting to see lovely days and can enjoy them without constantly sneezing like Mommy!   -Porter & Cooper

January 2016:

Lots of make-believe time during our rainy days of January
(Firefighters in our new boots from Memaw was one of our most favorite make-believe games!)

 



Random "super heroes" was also a favorite game!

 



Hanging out with Auntie Sheka

Weekend a Nana's & Papa's - Nana showed off her accordion!

• A morning out at Cache Creek Preserve...it was cold!

 



Papa took this picture of Mommy teaching me how to use binoculars.

•  Free Museum Day in Sacramento AND Super Bowl Weekend with Gruncle

At the CA-State History Museum

How we stayed entertained during the Super Bowl - giddy up, Mama!



We got to eat pizza in the entry way during the Super Bowl Game!

Thanks for heating the "little pool" (Jacuzzi) Uncle Peter!
