The Robins are here!

A sure sign that spring is around the corner, we both saw a robin yesterday! We have had a busy time at our house, we have had company three out of four weekends. We love having our family come to visit. This weekend our grandchildren Aimee and Evan came down from up north for our great granddaughter Lydia’s 1st birthday. Our son Jason and his fiancé’,  Pattie also came so we had a festive time. Lydia loved eating her very first cupcake to the last crumb. That little girl loves to eat just like her great grandma!  Our daughter-in-law Melissa brought us a treat to share on their weekend visit. I’m not crazy about pretzels, but Pa Lloyd loves them. I have to admit this is a snack where its hard to eat just one! Melissa shared the recipe, so I hope that you will like them too. It makes a huge batch so you will have a supply for awhile!
