Spring

Dare I say that Spring has finally started to arrive? I saw these tulips popping through the grass yesterday.

The kids are so excited for spring and to be outside.

Because we do live in Minnesota, we had several wild weather weeks leading up to Spring.

First, we had our first day of 40 degrees, which of course meant that Zahra and Penelope took of their pants and shoes to play outside.

And Quinn was in a t-shirt

Then, we had a late season snowstorm of about 8 inches!

The kids are obsessed with the movie "Frozen", and the girls kept shouting "Tell Elsa to bring back summer!" The snow did give us a chance to build "Olaf" though, who is a character from the movie.

And to sled down the next door neighbor's front hill

Spring snow melts quickly, and "warmer" temps were back soon. Quinn took this opportunity (40 degree temps) to wear shorts to school.

And the kids have been having so much fun just being outside.

And the truest sign of spring in the Herold/Syed household? We took the kids to the Mall of America to buy their crocs today!

Of course, colder temps are in the forecast for next week, but in our minds Spring is here for good. Thanks, "Elsa", for bringing back the warm temps!
