The weather here has been miserable this month--cold and rainy and several days of snow even (it snowed this whole weekend)! It wouldn't be so bad if it was January or February, but it's supposed to be spring, and so far, this is the worst month of weather we've had all winter :( We're trying to keep busy with inside activities, but we just can't wait for a little bit of sun and to be able to get back outside again!!
Here are some pictures and videos from the month that show us braving the elements outside and trying to keep busy with indoor activities. There are also some pictures from Mother's Day--in the UK, Mother's Day is on March 10. Needless to say, this was the coldest Mother's Day I have ever experienced :) But, we still had a lovely day! My boys took me to a nice breakfast, spoiled me with flowers, and even let me take a nice nap while they went out to run some errands. I couldn't have asked for a nicer day (well, next year, I wouldn't mind a little sun :)
