This season there is a lot of newness.
Spring:
Can you find the hidden letter? haha
I used to think these were mini grapes as a kid and try to eat them

Brightly colored flower beds
Love this color!
tulipsHouse renovations:
Carport looks much better!
Taaaadaa! (new paint & new windows....same volvo)Blue Ridge Marathon 2011 (aka Monsoon 2011):
Brian & a friend he met along the way stopped to take a photo during the marathon
Chase giving daddy a hug and telling him "good job dada!"
Brian's marathon buddy, Grace, who did the half-marathon (not pictured: Krisha & Justin who endured the post-marathon dinner conversation... haha jk Grace & Brian. We love you and are proud of you!)
Note- these pictures in no way BEGIN to capture the monsoon that was occurring during the race. In fact if I had my camera with me, it's possible I could have captured the scary moment my volvo almost floated away on Franklin Rd. Not even kidding. Thank you God for allowing me to u-turn and escape with kids in tow. I found some pictures online to justify my sheer terror of being stuck with children in a lowriding car with no way to get home!
This was a photo (from The Roanoke Times) of a tree falling on a house in our neighborhood b/c there was a tornado watch. Yep, and my hubby is running in this chaos! But he DID finish thanks to a nice lady who let him sit on her porch and escape the torrential downpour!
Bethany Beach, DE:
"Is that really your leg?" (Chase confused by daddy's wetsuit) Yes Brian went swimming in FREEZING cold water in Bethany Beach. We were just cold watching him from the beach!
