Signs of Spring

It is springtime so we are celebrating by planting some flower seeds. Madison got to pick out the flower seeds at the store that she liked.

We opened the package and looked at the tiny seeds.

Push the seeds down into the soil.

Then we have to water them.


Then 5 minutes later Madison goes to check to see if they grew.

Carnival

Tonight we went up to workout and when we got there we discovered they had a carnival happening in the gym. After Jim drove back home to get cash for the tickets we had a blast. Madison's favorite part was getting her hair done with pink hairspray and glitter. She also got hearts painted on her cheeks.

Back to Work

Well I am finally back to work after a 2 and a half year hiatus. I am in the same office as when I went on leave but now I am working with Aquatic Plant Management instead of Urban Fishing. It is a slow time of year for plants (lots of ice and all) so I am getting to know the permit system entering permits and understanding the job more. In the spring I will be out in the field a lot doing inspections I suspect. Madison handled the transition to daycare really well. She really likes going to Miss Kristen's and likes the kids there.
I will still be doing my photography business even while I am back to work. I even had a job pop up to take some pictures my first week back. It is nice to get repeat business. I had one print get a Judge's Choice Medal and an Honorable Mention at a International Print Circuit that was held in the Twin Cities. That was pretty cool. The picture is below.
