Yet another snowfall arrived overnight, and the patches of grass that were finally showing through were temporarily hidden again (I just looked out, and saw that the size of the uncovered patch of grass in our back yard has grown quite a bit since last week. Last night's snowfall has already melted, hooray!) Everywhere I go I find other people wondering when spring will finally be here - green grass, buds on the trees, flowers pushing up through the dirt...After all, it is April already. I know winters are longer up here, and I accept that, to a point, but even Isaac has been wondering when the snow will be gone.
That said, I must say I've been thankful that the weather is warming up somewhat. As Curtis said, we went for our first family bike ride of the year this week, and look forward to many more. I've been trying to walk more these past weeks, partly because my Curves club has a walking challenge on, and partly because it's great to get out for the fresh air and exercise.
Tomorrow night we're having some people in to help celebrate Curtis' Mom's birthday (she was in Alberta on the actual day), so that should be fun, if a bit loud with all of the kids that may be coming.
