Spring time means Vikings! Yes, really.
Spring is finally here and we are definitely happy. We had far too much of cold and snow this winter. I haven't taken a lot of pictures lately, because we've been so busy catching up on things- garden stuff, remodeling stuff, work and school. Here are a few quick pics though. Hopefully these will satisfy the hordes of fans. :)
This picture was taken at Gavin's request. The kitty is Tigger, our oldest cat and Gavin's favorite.
Gavin has been doing lots of puzzles lately, mostly the smaller variety. He's gotten good enough to do 24-28 piece puzzles alone and will happily tackle 100 piece puzzles if I help.
Another picture Gavin requested: Goblin, the youngest of the cats. He sleeps at the foot of Gavin's bed most nights.
Here's Gwydion, garden helper. He's always happy to be outside, even it if means pulling weeds with Mom.
Gwydion has been reading Magic Tree House #15: Viking Ships at Sunrise, so we've been reading about Vikings: mythology, history and of course geography. We've even been playing a Viking game called Hnefatalf, which a little like a shorter, simpler version of chess.
We've also had some free art time, in which Gwydion attempted to make Cars characters out of polymer clay. The attempt was rather unsuccessful, but we'll try again soon.
And here's my happy little monkey, cheesing it up for the camera. Hopefully I'll remember to bring the camera along more often and the next update will be longer.

Thanks for the updated photos. I have to start saving all over agin since my other computer DIED out. It's such a joy to keep up with the little Burn's Boy's since I don't get to see them as much as I would like. Hope to see them in the next month or so?
