It is April 16, my daffodil's are in full bloom, my tree has cute little baby leaves, and spring is in the air.  So is a only seen in Colorado Spring BLIZZARD!  They are calling for 2 feet of heavy wet snow at our house by Saturday morning.  When I picked the kiddo's up from school today they were doing the "Snow School Tomorrow" dance.  Pretty cute.  The kids actually stated that their teachers were doing the same dance inside the building...  Imagine that!  I usually don't get too excited when the weather "people" here in Denver call for snow.  They are usually wrong.  Somehow, I get the feeling that we will be doing some shoveling tomorrow...  I will take a picture of the snowman we will make for the front yard!
On to other things, when I picked Emma up from track practice today the comment she made was, are you sitting down...  "I LOVE TRACK"!!  Yes, she LOVES track.  She signed up to run the 100 yard dash and throw the shot put.  They ran a mile to warm up and she is sore, but, did I mention, she LOVES track!
Abby is working on her spelling!  She is NOT a speller, or a math girl.  If you want a wink and a smile with some attitude, she is your girl.  If you want cleaning and organization, she is your girl.  If you want math or spelling, well, keep going.  We are working on those things though.  It is a lot easier to learn spelling and math than organization, as I can tell you from experience with daughter number one, not to mention any names!
I will take pictures of our weather and let you know how it is going!

I am amazed that Emma loves track so soon. I thought it would take longer but I am so happy for her. It will be good for her. I also want to tell you that Abby did not get her organizational ability from you (or me). We are both much better now but it was a long time coming. Abby will get there with the math and spelling. You and Chris will make sure of that. Good luck with the snow today. Might be a snow day for everyone. Don't send it our way. Love ya
