The sun was warm and it felt good being outside enjoying a beautiful spring day.

On February 11, during one of our many snowstorms this winter, Kaylee made this gigantic snowball. Jen had the foresight to save it in the freezer.

Memorial Day seemed like a good day to bring it out for a snowball fight when the temp was close to 80.

She threw it straight up. Fortunately, it landed on the grass in front of her.

Snowball fight in May!

Dan's tractor from 1978 or 1979. Many young ones have enjoyed playing with it, riding it, and pushing it. Kaylee is no exception.

The 17 year cicadas are back and they are fascinating, noisy, and unusual creatures. Kaylee had the magnifying glass out to get a closer look.

She even tried to get one to crawl into her hand.

Creative and inventive Brian built a house for the cicada on the driveway.

And then it was time for some salmon.
