A visit to Connecticut

We left beautiful springtime weather in SC to visit chilly winter in CT.  We had fun with some of the kids' cousins, picked pussy willows, sat on tractors, visited Grammy's moo cows, and got a little dusting of snow. Savannah and Elizabeth (we call her Baby Elizabeth even though she's almost 3!) marched around Grandma Rooney's house to the same "marching song" about 20 times, and they even got me, Kristine, Gram Rooney and "Aunt Yinda" to join in the marching. Gage loved sitting on Grandpa's tractor but could not figure out how Grandpa got those cool orange blinking lights to turn on (he tried and tried all the buttons), and yes, we did have a few boo-boo toes thanks to the ever-popular rocking horse at Grammy's.
