We've been treated to some lovely weather. It was 22℃ on Friday. A lovely, warm day. The nights are still cold, though.
Our Ottawa kids visited for an Easter sleepover! Grampa brought home tulips for the table.
After that, we went for a forest walk.
I found 2 and Jordan found 3 Barred Owl pellets. I heard owl calling that morning.
There was Facetime with Jesse and his kids out in Vancouver! Cousin Bryony is 7 next week. We sent a wee parcel.

We had a few things for them Easter morning. A drawing pad, pencils, Sharpie felt pens, a calendar with kittens and puppies!
A chocolate hamburger to share!
While Aster dissected, Caitlin and JL went for a walk. They spotted Labbit near the wood pile. I spotted her Monday morning when I put out garbage.
Look what they found! An oil beetle. It spits poison at predators.
The kids are going away for their 20th wedding anniversary later. The other gramma will be there the first week. I will be there the second week. Caitlin showed me their new (used) EV and gave me some pointers.

A very good family weekend, it seems! Lovely. It was cold, damp and windy here - but plenty folk still tried the shoreline picnic! YAM xx
The tradition continues. 👍
A fine welcoming to spring. I hear you about putting the snow stuff away. JG cleared ours and then ...it snowed. I needed a shovel and none was to be seen.
I think shrew is right - mouse would be rounder.
Such an enriching experience to share holidays with all the family! Chocolate hamburger was the most unusual find in my opinion!
It sounds like a lovely Easter weekend in every way. I'm glad you could spend time with at least some of the grands. (but I'm amazed they couldn't move the snowblower!)
My daughter loves finding skeletons that she can clean and put on her shelf. She has another cat skull in hydrogen peroxide that my brother found in his shed frozen. Great finds. Looks like a great get together.
It sounds like a nice time was had by all.
A fun weekend with the family.
The food looks yummy.
Pretty tulips and heron sculptures.
Take care, have a great day and happy week!
Certainly looks and sounds a good visit.
All the best Jan
It looks and sounds like a wonderful weekend - which is lovely.
Treasure those visits. The grandchildren will soon go their own ways.
Nice family weekend!
My kids and I used to collect and dissect owl pellets all of the time! They are so cool!
