Spring is here...

I can tell it is spring. The snow is gone. Walker is wearing a windbreaker and flying his kite. We've started riding our bikes again. Summer can't be far behind. Except that right now it is pretty chilly. I'm up here at the computer with a nice, hot cup of coffee.
It's been busy lately. Walker started Intramurals at school. He loves it. They play a lot of games and run around and get nice and sweaty. We were lucky to get into that program. Only 20 first graders got in and he was one of them. Yay! He was so excited. The only downside to it is that it is on Tuesday - like everything else he does. We go from that to Hip-Hop, then cub scouts. We always hope there is no homework assignment on Tuesdays!
Baseball starts soon. Saturday morning is the team photo. Walker is on the "Owlz." It's a step up from t-ball - "farm league." Last year we did not have a good experience with t-ball, but that wasn't our fault. The coach and her son weren't wonderful. This year Walker's cub scout leader is the baseball coach! That guy is awesome. Most of his cub scout den will also be on the team, so we know the boys and families. It'll be fun. I'm looking forward to it. This year is the first time he gets the complete uniform. Last year it was just the t-shirt and hat. Now it's that plus the pants and baseball socks. He'll be so cute!
Only 6 more weeks of dance classes (not including vacation, but hey that's vacation). I'm almost on summer vacation! As much as I love dance, I love summer even more. We are all looking forward to camping.


Here are Walker and some buddies at the Pinewood Derby. They made their race cars and then raced them. We didn't win, though. Which is actually a good thing, because then we didn't have to go to yet another meeting to the state finals. But we didn't tell Walker that.

Ready, set, go.

Walker's hair is getting really long. We colored the underneath of the back red. He's wanted to do it for a long, long time. We finally had some time to do it. It looks cute. I like it long. Obviously, Walker does too. It's his hair, he can do what he wants with it (to a point!). Scott doesn't like it.

Walker in hip-hop right before the pinewood derby. You can't even see the red hair from the front.
