So while the world and nature apparently think the first day of Spring was officially back in March, here in WI and at the Reilly household, I don't consider it spring until ~80-90% of the snow is gone and it's warm enough for us to actually spend decent time outdoors. Also, it needs to be nice for more than one day. Plain and simple, I think Spring is FINALLY here! Two day ago (Tuesday 4/5/11) our little family was fortunate enough to get to spend some time outside, enjoying the warmth and sunshine. Broghan continued his plight to clean up the yard from months worth of....well...Marvin using it as his own personal restroom; Keller wandered around and picked up sticks from the driveway (he gets a twig or two and then is content to just carry them around...I see it as a form of cleaning the driveway); and I got to work on painting a shelf that will end up back in our kitchen and sanding down a railing for our step leading to the downstairs of our house. Broghan also did some manual labor work on our future egress window space...digging the hole a few feet deeper. Here are some photos I snapped of the boys.
Twigs in hand.

These were my (twice) failed attempts at getting a picture of Keller pretending to paint the side of the house...
Marvin doing what dogs do...lounging in the sunshine and chewing on a stick.
Keller and his bucket. Watch the video on here to see how far he wandered with it.
