From Snow to Spring and Movie Date

Playing outside in the muddy yard, but enjoying the spring weather!
Just a little muddy
They found the puddles to jump in
Movie Time!!
A fun Day at the Movies
One of their favorite parts was riding together to the movie. We drove a little extra afterwards just because they liked it so much. We discussed in advance where we would sit, what movie we would watch in the car, etc...The boys had it all planned out.
We went from snow to spring in a week. I am not sure how long this will last in March, but it is sure nice to have warm spring weather. We spent a lot of time outdoors this weekend while the temperatures were warm. The snow is quickly melting and the puddles are deep. The boys seem to have a radar for the nearest puddle to jump in, sit in, or run through.
The boys enjoyed a special trip to see a movie at the theater with their best twin friends, Jack and Charlie. Since all four of their birthdays are only about a month apart and very shortly after Christmas, we decided to celebrate with a special event rather than exchanging gifts. We went to see the new Dr. Seuss movie, "The Lorax." The boys were all so excited about the idea and thought it was so cool to go somewhere without any little brothers-just the "big boys." The dads helped out by babysitting the younger boys at home. We had a fabulous time and the boys were all so good. We have come a long way in four years. We sat quietly and watched the movie, laughed at the jokes, and ate our snacks with no issues whatsoever. What a fun day!
