Wednesday, April 21

We have been enjoying some pretty spectacular weather around here. It was warm enough to celebrate a certain someone's 6th birthday outside on Saturday. We had a big dino themed birthday bash complete with oh about 12 kids plus parents. Fun was had by all, girls tackled the boys, kids hunted for dino eggs, a dino pinata was smashed (with much effort), sand was thrown, and many, many presents were opened! Two hours never felt so long before...

The kids have been spending a good part of their days doing this...


And this....


And even getting a little sun-kissed while they are at it...


And we are really enjoying what I thought was a ruined quilt...it works perfectly as a grass blankie - or bodie as Addison would say. Quinn got a lot of use out of it while he was getting over his fear of the grass. He wasn't so sure of it at first but now he crawls all over the place.

I've even gotten my hands (and feet) dirty planting some perrenials in the flower beds....I love this time of year...Greg says I can't resist spending...I really can't resist getting my hands on some flowers and digging in the dirt...and mulching - one of my other favorite spring time rituals.

Happy spring folks! Hope your day is filled with sunshine, laying on a blanket in the grass and picking mulch splinters out of your feet goodness!

I have some very needy flower beds if you finish yours and are still wanting a project. Your kids are adorable as always! Glad the party was a success.
