Too Amazing for Words...

The weather here went from this last Monday and Tuesday:


 To this on Thursday:


And, in addition to the weather becoming suddenly glorious with temperatures in the 70's, we did all of this:
John turned 12!

David

Anna and David went to their first formal!

Anna
And, in case that wasn't enough fun, the whole family went to a Twins game on Saturday, where the glorious weather continued and the Twins even won!


There was a cowboy hat giveaway, so now we have 7 of those!

Today the weather is so nice that we are having a bonfire tonight for Daniel's 10th birthday.  I was even inspired to clean the six months' worth of grime from the screened porch, where I am sitting now, enjoying, guess what? The glorious weather! 

Happy Birthday Daniel!
And if that isn't really enough about how great our last few days have been around here, I have also taken two outside runs.  I've left the squishy safety of the treadmill and have managed well so far on the hard asphalt, 3 miles each time.  This is a big milestone and I am so excited!

Someone needs a tan!
That's all for now!  Life is Different Here this week, and I am so thankful!
