Springtime in Minnesota


Easter weekend. It was freezing. Something about Ally's parka detracts from her Easter dress. But we found all the eggs the Easter Bunny hid and then joined our friends for a beautiful Easter service at Plymouth Covenant; followed by a fabulous brunch at Greg's house.
So we were still biking inside because it was too cold. Trimama, Tac-Boy, Tim, Irongirl Nyhus... we are all being really good sports about training when the weather has jsut sucked. Maybe in a few days it will warm up.




Well, here we are a few days later. It isn't better, it's worse!!!





At least the kids like it. And it's supposed to get to the mid 50's this weekend. Yeah. Right. Heard that one before...

At least the kids have fun when it is snowing. Snowy weather here in chi-town also..It is starting to drive me crazy..

Our kids had the same heavy clothes on over Easter clothes. Of course, with all the snow, they wondered if Santa was going to let the Easter Bunny borrow Rudolph for the day.

Maybe you should come to CA for a warm training weekend!

Thank God I'm not the only one freezing my butt off and torturing myself with indoor rides in APRIL!

Commo threw Tac down. That was rude, but sadly true. Tac, those arms look like buggy whips. You need a haircut too, hippee.

Are you sure you didn't take that snowy picture back in January??

The winter that would.not.die!!!

TriBoomer a.k.a. Brian said...

Ugh... enough winter already. Looking so much to meeting up with you guys at Wildflower.

You guys are definitely pretty tough to be able to do those long trainer rides. After about an hour, I'm ready to lose my mind!

The finished tile looks amazing!! Well done...
