It has been a really cold weekend here! We’re hoping it’s the last of the wintry weather! Even in the cold weather (around 20 degrees) we ventured on a walk from a Claire & Eric’s house up to downtown Powell for the Saturday morning Easter Egg hunt. It is divided by age groups though this year they were all pretty sparse with kiddos given the weather. The eggs, however, were quite plentiful! When the horn sounded to begin the hunt Finn took off in a sprint, passing tons of eggs! He was really excited to go run 🙂 But he soon began to fill his froggy basket and had quite the take home of candies.  We walked to the Mean Bean to warm up with muffins and coffee and then made a pit stop at the Beehive Bread Company before walking back to Claire & Eric’s for a bit of play time.  I’ve been thinking lately about getting seeds started for our summer garden so after our Easter Egg fun we decided to head to the store to go shopping for some supplies. Finn loves planting the seeds and playing in the dirt. And before we got started he really enjoyed “building towers” with the soil pods.  Mind you many of the plants we started don’t require growing indoors and will likely do better directly sown in the garden outside. But we’re doing it all for the fun of growing things!

And here is our finished product: Beans, Beets, Kaleidoscope Carrots (many colors!), Cucumber, Baby Carrots, Butternut Squash, Zucchini, and Tomatoes.

After a good nap, we woke Finn up to head to the Columbus Crew SC game. It was a 7:30 game on a super cold night, but we bundled up, took an awesome seat warmer (it was so warm!!), a couple of blankets, and headed out! Finn did really well and had fun watching the game, eyeing spiderman (that he swore was across the field in a “box” where people enter the stadium), a helicopter, streamers, and the moon! From time to time he would say “no night night”. I think that because it was dark outside and he could see the moon we were going to put him to bed soon.  It was pretty cute. And when we got home he and daddy (and Lily too) played a quick game of dribble in the kitchen.  Cammie has had a tough week of digestive problems – both bowels and vomiting. She is on a round of antibiotics that I’m hoping will help her. The first day or so she didn’t seem very spunky, but every day since she’s seemed ok. Though each morning she has gotten sick at some point during the night 🙁  This aging thing really isn’t fun – poor girl!
