Spring is maybe on the way?

Spring has kind of begun to make an appearance! I have been totally swamped with school these past couple weeks, and then on top of that I was sick for almost 2 weeks with a terrible cold. I am finally on spring break this week, thank goodness. I have tests the week we get back, so it isn't a total break but good enough I guess.

This is the 'pond' behind our house. Apparently this is what happens when snow melts, this also happens with a ton of rain. Thought about just putting some chlorine in it and calling it a pool.

We went to Grant, MI this past weekend to celebrate the four DeLange birthdays there are in March. Alec's birthday was on Sunday, he reports that he had a very happy birthday! We had a good time with the family though, especially since we won't be back until the semester is over.

We went to the nature center in Grant Sunday afternoon to walk around. Anne and Rob brought their two huge chocolate labs (who we all call the chocolate babies). It was so fun to walk around with all the nieces and nephews and enjoy the Sunday afternoon.
