Purple Martin gourds and a decoy!
We installed 6 of these structures along the Niagara River from Buffalo to Grand Island to Niagara Falls!

While Amy was away, the kiddos helped Adam clean the basement and paint the floors - a task that needed to be completed before we could even consider getting another cat!
The reward for hard work - dinner at Byrne Dairy!
Spring tulips!
LOOK! We found morels on the edge of our garden :)
Adam found at least 12 morels in our side yard near a dead apple tree!
Apple blossoms!

Morels from our yard and the orchard
Arcade fun on Friday night at Tully's restaurant
Both kiddos won prizes!
On Saturday afternoon, we headed to PetCo to look at kittens. Neighbor Denise volunteers with a cat adoption group, Wayward Paws, which was having an adoption event at PetCo. We cautioned the kids that even if they found kittens that they fell in love with that we may not be able to bring the kittens home right away. As chance would have it, both kids did find an 8 week old kitten that they loved AND the kittens were able to come home with us Saturday afternoon - 2 brothers :)
Meet Addie's kitten, Thunder
And Ayson's kitten, Shadow :)
After we brought the kittens home and set them up with food, water, and litter, Addie and Amy were off to a Spa Day with our friend and neighbor, Ms Annie. Ms Annie had given Addie a manicure set for her birthday and invited us over to her house for a girls afternoon:)
