Spring Fever!

Sometimes our posts have deep intellectual thoughts full of our challenges and what we have been learning. This is not one of those posts. Apparently Rick and one of our youth kids, Kevin were bitten by a bug carrying spring fever- its the only possible explanation that does justice to explaining why they went crazy this afternoon! First, Rick decided to try and do a back flip off a swing into a mud puddle. ( this would have worked better if the ground about two inches in wasn't still FROZEN!) Although he managed to land right side up- he still landed on his "backside" completely covering him in mud! Then- in typical spring fever brilliance- he decided to jump into the only spot on the whole lake not currently covered in ice (yes thick, cold, winter... ICE) to rinse off and convinced Kevin to join him in this spectacular idea. If only I had had the camera with us. But alas- no camera- so you will all just have to use your imaginations. It was pretty funny. I guess its better he get these experiences over with before we move to Africa where the ice is a bit more scarce! hee hee. Anyways- happy spring to you all! God Bless, Heather and Rick
