Baseball games, storms, snails, frogs... Spring!

Here is our spring:
Chris took the very excited boys to the professional baseball game. He said they made it about one inning and were ready to leave. Too slow for them. I asked why he didn't get a fun picture, and he said this was the fun picture. Maybe we aren't baseball people.

We are, however, nature people. This is us enjoying a storm approaching, which seems to happen four or five times a week this season. We get our lawn chairs and count seconds between lightning and thunder, that sort of thing.

Flowers and sunsets...

These snails are unwelcome guests in our back yard. The kids were supposed to be disposing of them but they were taking pictures instead.

Now for some frogs. Tate and his "best girl-chasing buddy in the world" found a few and talking Sam into putting them on his head.
Sam and Penny had a hard time hanging on to one most of the afternoon, but finally.....
He got one. Poor frog probably didn't make it much longer after Sam finished squeezing it for his very serious big-boy portrait. Notice his gun in holster. He was "huntin' frogs."
Yes, the best frog gets to make the blog page. He was big, its hard to tell.
We are enjoying being outside this spring, allergies and all!
