5/7-So is it Winter still?

I seriously thought it was time for Summer. I'd settle for Spring, but winter? In May? It is raining and sleety. I AM grateful that it's not snowing....yet. Of course, it's club night and we've had bad weather 5 of the past 7 months on this night. One of my girls has missed those 5 nights because of snow. AGGGGGH! Needless to say, I'm not really surprised that it's yucky.

The past 2 days have been fabulous! We spent both days out in the yard and in the pool. Well, Bailee spent it in the pool. That's the first thing she asked for this morning, "Back Yard, Mommy?" Usually it's "Mickey, Tigger, Pooh?"

Monday evening we went up the canyon for a picnic with some family. It was so fun, but I forgot to take our camera so there's no proof we were there. :(

Yesterday I sent McKinley and Bailee out to play in the back yard while I made dinner. I can watch them from the window, so I wasn't worried. Not a minute later they both came screaming and crying about a snake. I couldn't see it anywhere so I told them to go play in the pool, but they kept saying "No, Snake!". So I walked over the the pool to show them there was nothing wrong. HA. The snake was in the pool. I wish I'd have taken a picture. He was just hanging out enjoying the water and the warm weather. I told them they didn't have to get in the pool. We have a couple of garden snake's that hang around here. They don't bother me, and Bailee likes to look for them. But Luke on the other hand...let's just say if he never saw one again, it'd still be too soon. My dad agrees with him there.

They tore the rest of the fence out today and dug the trench for the new one. I don't think they know what they're doing. The trench is not even close to where it should be, so they'll probably be digging it again tomorrow. I'll be so glad when the fence is back up; it'll look nice and I won't have to watch the happenings of the high school crowd.

I forgot to write the onion story. :) Bailee's new word is onions. That's her answer to EVERYTHING. What do you want for breakfast? Onions. What do you want to watch? Onions. What song do you want to sing? The onion one. So last Saturday Bailee and I walked to the church for a little breakfast they were putting on. When we were leaving Bailee said "Mom, more breakfast." I asked her if she wanted more eggs, or more pancakes. She said "More onions." I wonder if she's saying something else and I'm just hearing onions. She was counting and got to nine and said "purple onions. ten. eleven. twelve. thirteen." She never says nine. What a funny girl. I have pictures of the girls playing in the pool, but I'm not sure where the camera is so I'll post later.

I guess this was just a bunch of rambling, but that's what blogging is for, right?
