All Aboard

We have been enjoying some beautiful weather here in Fresno. So, instead of spending our weekend doing the usual routine of gardening and other projects around the house, we decided to head out to enjoy the springtime. Every year, the county organizes a "Blossom Trail," which highlights the local agriculture and gives people a chance to enjoy the blossoms in the many orchards that surround Fresno. There are lots of events as part of this... last year, Dan and Norah ran in the Blossom Trail race, and this year, we decided to head out to Hillcrest Farms to ride the train. Norah has been really into trains lately - model trains, trains that we pass on the highway, etc. - so we knew she would get a kick out of it. The farm also had a great play space for kids, with miniature houses, a suspension bridge, and trails through the woods, so it turned into a fun morning for all of us.

Maddie also turned seven months old on Saturday. She's still busy practicing her scooting and working up the courage to crawl on her hands and knees alone. It's hard to believe how fast time goes!
