Spring has sprung!

It was a beautiful 75 degrees here today, so we spent lots of time outside.

The morning started by going with the church playgroup to House of Bounce. It's a great place for little kids, with 3 huge inflatable jumping things, the kind you see at carnivals. One just to jump in, one with 2 huge slides, and a third with an obstacle course complete with "rock" walls. Drew loved it and can't wait to go back.

We came home for lunch, then headed to WallyWorld to get a patio set. Now that it's so nice, why not take advantage and eat outside more often?? Our deck is rarely in direct sunlight, so it's a great spot to be. Got that set up while the kids played, then had dinner.

The best part of the evening for me was when we were still outside, and I was at the bottom of our hill with Drew. Aaron was just getting Ben ready to go inside for a bath. I was getting up to head back up the hill when Drew said "Mommy, can we lay here for a minute just to watch the sky go by?" It was so incredibly cute and sweet, I couldn't say no. So we talked about the clouds and their shapes for a bit before heading in for his hose down. He was so filthy from playing outside all afternoon that the bathwater could have used a bath after!
