Here are two videos of Obie tooling around at Grandma and Grandpa Keehn's house. Our visit there was Obie's first taste of Spring as a walking, talking, adventuring, discovering little boy. He got to chase birds and throw balls and dig in the dirt and sniff flowers. All of the kids had a great time playing outside - all day long Maggie and Bee were playing in the clubhouse or the wooded hills. Every so often I'd hear the front screen door slam shut and know that they were still alive. And when better to be alive than Spring??
Possibly, though, the best part about visiting down south for their Spring was that when we came back up north Spring had started here, too! This is the first March in over a century that it hasn't snowed once the entire month! We have crocuses blooming and daffodils and tulips shooting up out of the ground. There are robins and other Spring birds every where. It is amazing!
I've always loved Autumn so much, but when you live in Minnesota Spring definitely takes the cake!
