Setting up the rocket Henry got last week

Our first visit to Irvine Nature Center. They have an amazing outdoor play area that the boys loved. We played outside for 2 hours with friends despite the chilly weather Friday afternoon!

Henry has really embraced springtime!

And finally, the first (and hopefully last!) snow in springtime!
