Easter Weekend

 Far Guy and I and Sadie had a quiet weekend.  Sadie enjoyed walks each day with Noah. (She came back tired!)


This is Sadies I think you forgot to feed me look.   FYI she was fed! 

Far Guy and I are packing up and venturing back to our home in the woods one day this week.

Jen and Andy have been off on an adventure with beautiful views!


They will return today.  Sadie will be thrilled! 

Whats cooking: Far Guy made a steak and baked potato along with fruit for our Easter meal.

Minnesota weather:  High 41F or 5C   Low was 19 or -7C  it was a windy day so it felt cold.  Some of the snow melted a little.

Snowed

 It snowed about 3 maybe 4 inches and melted some on Friday.  We are all set for round two of the Winter Storm...who knows maybe it will fizzle out.

The roads were snowy and slippery when we took Sadie to daycare but dry when we picked her up. 


Grandson Noah came over and shoveled the walk and the driveway.

Easter weekend is upon us. 

Minnesota weather: Cloudy High 36F or 2C  Low was 32F or 0C.

We have no plans for Saturday or Sunday...just staying safe with Sadie.

Hopeful

 Dogs are forever hopeful...seems like they are always optimistic.

They never realize that the stick they have carried from the woods has to be left outside.


Surely it will fit inside?  

Maybe someone will come lay down in the snow with me? 

Nope not happening. 

It snowed most of the day...fine flakes...there is probably 2 or 3 inches of new snow. 

Minnesota weather: High 33F or 1C  Low was 29F or -2C eh!  We now have a Winter Storm Warning instead of a Winter Weather Advisory.

Far Guy went to his first April appointment (weekly infusion)...thank goodness we only have 9 appointments in April...practically on vacation. We need a rest after all the March appointments.  I went to Aldi and Hobby Lobby...everyone and their Uncle was in town today...storm shopping would be my guess.

Never give up...Spring is bound to come someday.
