I have been such a slacker in posting. I did get my cast off a few weeks ago. I was using crutches still, then borrowed a cane and was using that, but mostly now I just walk. Everything else is too slow. My foot is still sore and bruised feeling, but not too bad. I think it is still swollen though because I can't seem to get anything but my tennis shoes on, and some sandals. And sandals would be fine except for the days that it snows, which has been waaaaayyyy too many lately. It is the middle of April, why are we still having blizzards? I am so done with cold and ice and snow!
So other things that have been happening: Alice cut all her hair off. It was very traumatic for me. She seemed rather pleased with herself. So in the pictures you can see it is shorter. Everyone thinks it is so cute, and it is pretty cute. She used school scissors and just chopped it all off. Carissa had to take her to the barber to get it fixed since I had my cast and couldn't drive, but I don't think the barber did much, just evened it out and blended it a bit. At least Alice didn't start at the very top of her head!
We had spring break and took a trip to the aquarium in Denver. It was fun and the kids really enjoyed it. Alice was quite enamored by the mermaids. Yes they had mermaids at the aquarium, we even saw them swimming in the tanks with the fish.

Love the fish on the right!
I just love jellyfish!
We also went swimming during spring break- at an indoor pool of course!
Easter was lovely. While I was unable to do much walking around, I made matching vests for the boys (and cousins) and a skirt for Alice. Thanks to Granmama for the cute shirt and bolo ties!
And now we are redecorating our living room - new furniture, new paint, new color scheme! I will post pics when it is finished!
