In addition to the excitement of Erin's new car, Grandma and Grandpa were able to enjoy getting out and about with the kids. Grandma took the girls shopping where Kate scored a needed bathing suit and Kenna was treated to a dress for this week's school dance. Grandma, much more generous than Mom purchased it after Mom directed her to the closet full of Purity Ball dresses just waiting to be worn again.
While the girls were hanging out together, Ty and I took Grandpa to find play sand. Ty made his first ever purchase with money Grandma Carol sent him for Valentine's Day and Easter. Little man loved, "paying the lady" and the special time with Grandpa. Watching him dig his "two monies" out of his jean pockets with a deeply set furrowed brow as he concentrated on being big was beyond cute. Greg later took Grandpa and Ty to the new Cabela's in Louisville. Ty said he never wanted to come home and was shocked to learn he didn't have enough money for the really cool toys there. I suspect Greg felt similarly.
The weekend provided Spring. All the brown has transitioned into fresh green, trees have blossomed and flowers have bloomed. Greg's mowed twice already, providing a source of great joy for Ty. Allergies are inciting havoc and artificial air is needed only in spurts. We made it through another winter. I am breathing deeply.

I think you should frame the one of Greg and Ty - that one is a heart grabber, but then again, you have so many brilliant shots just this month alone, you're going to need a small fortune in frames ... and a gallery to go with them.
