Please, please, please let this weather stay! Mother Nature is really teasing us this year. It's warm and beautiful one day and rainy and cold the next. After the beginning of the week being one of those rainy, cold days, it was soo nice to get out and enjoy 75-degree weather today!
I took the kids on a walk on the trail today. It wasn't the easiest thing I've ever done. Justin was walking at a rather slow pace pushing his lawnmower and enjoying stopping to play in the dirt while Katelynn was riding at lighting speed on her three-wheeler way ahead of us. She wasn't very excited about having to stop and turn around every two minutes either. :)
The kids played on the swingset for quite a while too and then we finished our afternoon in the front where Justin loves to sit on the porch (and climb it too of course!)
We have this tree at the front of our house that blooms beautiful flowers really early each Spring. They bloom for only about a week and then they are gone, but we love it every year. I still don't know what kind of tree it is even after all these years of living here. Katelynn has taken a liking to it this year too. She has to pick a flower every time we are outside.
Love all the new pictures - you really know how to capture your kids in such great candid moments! And jealous of your 75 degree weather!!! Hopefully it is on its way north soon.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a Rose of Sharon tree. I had one at my old house!
ReplyDeleteOK so I googled and it doesn't look like rose of sharon actually. It's prettier! Is it a type of magnolia?
ReplyDeleteIt is a magnolia tree!
ReplyDeleteI love them, till the flowers drop. Then they are a HUUUUGE mess!
