Built a picnic table for the front yard
Early garden harvest has started with radishes.
Spring is starting to show itself in many ways- birds, animals coming out of hibernation, grass sprouting and Abbie wearing sun dresses. Some memories from our 4th week of COVID19 lockdown.

Holly can’t believe her luck - that her peeps are home all the time!
Easter
Hunter is finding animals and bringing them into show everyone. He also brought in a snake too!
We had a birthday dinner for Hunter the evening before and donuts the morning of the 3rd.
This past week we got hammered with snow. We beat a single day snowfall record in Feb that was set in 1917. Since Monday we had over 30 inches fall in our yard... and its March now!

We missed the lunar eclipse last night due to cloud cover, but awoke to a beautiful moonset this morning coming down right behind North Sister.
Christmas eve dinner and Christmas morning
We were also blessed with a white Christmas. It started snowing on Christmas eve and we had a great walk Christmas day.
As we posted recently our dog (Red) of 15 years passed away. We were not planning to get another pet for a while but recently we found out about a family looking to give away their dog due to expecting a fifth child and not having a lot of outdoor space. The dog is one year old and is a Goldendoodle. The minute we met her we fell in love. Being a Goldendoodle means she will hardly shed if at all which is perfect for cuddling and not getting hair everywhere. Her name was Hutch and after having a boy dog for 15 years calling a girl dog a boy name just didn't feel right. If she is a girl we wanted a girly name. So, we decided that we would rename her keeping Hutch as her middle name. After a few days of not knowing what we should call her we decided she was our Christmas dog and we would call her Holly, or Holly Hutch. Holly loves to follow us from room to room laying wherever she can to get loves and enjoys daily walks exploring her new neighborhood. We love that she is a part of our family and look forward to many years with her. Life is just better with a family dog.
Oh and we think their might be some resemblance here:
After finishing the new woodshed about a month ago, I have been busy chopping as we get ready for cooler weather. Figure it will hold over 4 cords if full.
