Mad Town Mondays IV: Spring has Sprung!

Spring is finally here! The past week the world has bloomed...




Now is the time of long fragrant walks, picnics, hikes and YARD SALES!!!!

This Saturday we went to Sun Prairie's (a suburb of Madison) Annual City-Wide Garage Sales. We went to about two dozen yard sales. There were so many we just parked in one spot and walked around. I love garage sales. Some of my favorite childhood memories are of going yard saling with my mom. This Saturday we had a good haul.

Our total was $19.60 with 12 free items! My favorite find was the umbrella stroller for $0.50!

Another thing I love about spring is outings in the great outdoors. Yesterday, a big group of us went to Devil's Lake. We had a great time hiking, blowing bubbles, playing games, and barbequing.

We took my son on his first hike, up past Balanced Rock and around past Devil's gate. We saw some great views and Indy (my son) loved it!

"This is my hiking face!" - Indy



I love these flowers. They remind me of bleeding hearts (one of my all time favorites) but they look like a bunny ears version of them. So... bleeding bunny ears?

Stopping to smell the flowers?
 

This is the Balancing Rock. It was so small I missed it on the way up.

The hawks were amazing. Soaring and diving!

After the hike, we came to the beach for barbequing and bubbles!



I LOVE BUBBLES!

All in all, we had a lovely day out... I'm so glad it's spring!

Sounds like a fun weekend. I love Indy and his hiking smile. And HOLY Big Bubble. How did you make that. Roan loves bubbles and would probably have a heart attack if he saw that.

That looks like so much fun!

And what a great haul at the garage sale. I can't believe you got all that stuff for under 20 bucks!
