Playing Outside

With our mild, dry winter we have spent some time almost every day playing outside. All four of the kids do a great job playing together, making up games, playing "house", digging in the sand and mud and just wandering around the yard. As I write this blog Ethan and Morgan have been outside for over an hour totally entertaining themselves. We always say that our backyard is like another room in our house. Having this outside space and nice winter has literally kept my sanity some days. Here are some pictures taken just 5 days apart.
March 9~A beautiful sunny day....



warm enough to dig a big hole and fill it with water and wear your bathing suit.

March 14~Rainy and cold, daddy finally took the kids outside for the first time that day to burn off some energy. Mommy doesn't do cold, rainy outside play.




The kids of course didn't notice the cold and had a great time splashing in puddles with daddy.

Jealous of the variety of weather! (Please tell me that isn't Riley's pink jacket?) Loved seeing pictures of your sweet fam. Enjoy the days!
