Hoppy Spring!

So yesterday I was working in the flower bed trying to clean out all the dead leaves and weeds. I was working under one plant and noticed something move underneath. I kind of backed away, b/c the part I saw looked like it could be a small mouse. I left it alone and waited for it to come out. When it did, the cutest little bunny came out! I went back to the plant and oh yes, there was a second one! After standing by the planting and kind of moving the stuff around it, here came out one more! Three little bunnies that were living in my flower bed! We saw the mother all winter when we left for work, but I never thought there might be bunnies too! Of course I ran in and got my camera to take a few pictures, but when I came out I noticed that one was hopping into the garage. I definately didn't want it to stay in there, what if I ran over it when I left! So after trying to shew it out, I put gloves on and picked it up and moved it back to the flower bed. The poor thing was so scared! I kept looking out the study window all night checking on them. I was afraid I might have messed up their home, but I have found them still there this morning underneath another plant! With the help of Abby and Anna, the bunnies names are Thumper, Bugs Bunny, and Nutmeg. Nutmeg is the name of a bunny Abby just got from the American Girl Store. I hope I didn't just adopt 3 little bunnies!

Spring Forward

Well it has been a whirlwind of a month, but we are finally in the month of March and ready for Spring! We are all doing good though! Dad is healing fast! Mom released his car keys to him last week! She said it felt like she was giving the keys to one of her kids for the first time. But he failed the first test...We told him to call when got to the office and he forgot! If you had no idea he had heart surgery 2 weeks ago, you wouldn't be able to tell. I think the hard thing for him is learning how to take things slow!
Mom and Dad just moved into a rent house over the weekend. The reconstruction on the house is expected to take 4-6 months. They found a wonderful house to rent that is in Oak Tree on the west side. Mom has quickly made it look like home! They are excited to take on this new journey in their life!
Spring Break is just around the corner for me and I am looking forward to the break! We have some house projects we have wanted to get started and I am hoping this is going to be the week for it to happen! Don't worry...I will let you know!
