We have had a nice spring so far. Many of our friends in the area have little baby animals, chicks and ducks and a pony that we have been able to play with . These past several weeks we had visits from Gramma Kay and then Grandpa John. We had a great time with both of them. Skeen is very talkative and we are amazed how he is not only saying lots of new words but combining phrases and communicating to us. He is always grabbing our hand and saying "show me" when he wants us to see something. He also like to play the "I see " game while we are driving or looking out the window. He really likes to play "I see a horse" or "cow" or he will even tell us how he sees all of our different dogs. "I see keillor... I see Olson... I see Braeburn.... : Quite the chatterbox. Tonight our friends hope to have a pig roast . We are looking forward to that it should be quite the experience.
