The joke’s on us.

Today is April first and that means, it’s also April Fool’s Day…

But the joke was on us because it was snowing this morning…

Good morning from Northside…

We saw our first snail of the spring…

I moved the snail from the middle of the sidewall on the stairs to the edge of the sidewalk by some mulch over by what might someday be an orchard…

It was still snowing…

Good evening from Northside…

We had an NYPD Pizza party tonight…

Remember when Oscar used to hop up on the sofa in our office studio and look out the window?

Goodbye, March.

We got a late jump on our walk this morning and the school was already starting to lineup on our street for drop-off so we just went around the block. And then we went back around the block this evening…

We put our new dining room rug under our dining room table…

And Genifer made chicken gyros for dinner tonight. They were delicious…

Baseball starts tomorrow…

Six years ago, we saw The Lion King for the first time…

And eight years ago, Michigan made it to the final Four…

A morning without power.

Good morning from Northside…

We lost power this morning after we got back from our walk. The power company said power was scheduled to return around 1pm. We ran out to get Skyline for a lunch a little bit before noon…

When we got home with our lunch, the power came back on. And it was Skyline time!

And then it was time to get to work.

Good evening from Northside…

There was really pretty light coming into the back of our house…

Today really made me really appreciate having electricity. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„βš‘οΈπŸΎβ€οΈ

Yardwork and a full moon.

We put down ten bags of pea gravel in our side yard…

And we completed the first section of our retaining wall along our fence…

It was so nice today. We sat outside and drink one of our ciders from Gatlinburg…

And there was a full moon tonight…

Chicken nugs for an overcast day.

Backyard delivery.

Today, we got a delivery of stuff to start working on our backyard from Lowes…

We got twenty bags of rocks, ten bags of pea gravel and ten bags of river rocks…

We also got landscaping timbers…

We’re going to try to line the bottom of our fence with the timbers and filled with rocks…

A gorgeous evening sky.

Slow down and grill.

We made burgers on the grill tonight…

Sunday, March 21st.

After our fun yesterday, we had a pretty low-key Sunday…

It was a very pretty day. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„β™₯️

Saturday, March 20th.

Today was the first day of Spring. And it felt like it…

We walked to Blue Jay for lunch…

We walked over to Boswell’s Alley to watch Michigan’s first round tournament game against Texas Southern. After the game, we stopped to have a few drinks at Northside Tavern. And on the way home, we picked up hoagies from NYPD. We had a really good Saturday. πŸ˜€πŸŒ„πŸŒ­πŸ»β™₯️
