Buried Treasure!

This is a view from my kitchen window. The backyard has a slope to it, which is great for sledding, but hard for Jane to walk down (and hard for me to carry her back up the hill!) We have a corner lot leading into a cul-de-sac, so it is big, but half of it is near a neighborhood street. And of course, there are no fences here in Wisconsin!
This is another view from my kitchen. Tommy taught himself how to do a back flip and then taught Rachel to do one as well. Now if we could just talk Bella into it....

This is a view of our cul-de-sac from our mailbox.

This is a view of our house. I'll post one of each season. I'm excited to see what it will look like with all the trees with leaves...(not excited for all the leaves falling in the fall that we will have to rake up!)

This kitchen was another treasure buried in the snow. It was just a little dusty! Also the basketball hoop.

What do I love more than a good bargain....something free!!! The snow all melted, and we've had a little taste of spring...and we found, out in the woods in our backyard, a trampoline! It's missing 4 springs, but other than that it works great. Dave had to dig up some of the springs from the frozen ground, but here you go. Pure pleasure for kids that have been couped up for months!
