It got a little scary here at the beginning of the week. We had two pretty cold days, and I was already wishing for summer to return. Yes, I did live in Michigan once upon a time ago but that was almost 11 years ago (Can you believe it.. it has actually been 11 years in January?!) and my blood has thinned and well, I have always hated the cold. This is one of the reason my heart belongs in North Carolina... the weather is mild all year long. But, I had been bragging about our 70-plus degree weather and then wham- out came the mornings that I had to start my car before loading the kids in and providing them a jacket (light one but still) to get to school. I just wasn't ready for it! We had skipped the long-sleeve weather without a jacket and went straight into the cold. Of course, there was a perfectly good reason for it and who I am to complain when there are so many people in New York that have nothing because of Sandy and the horrific weather it brought them. I suppose this is one of those times when "It could always be worse.." comes to mind.
All that being said, Friday finally brought on some good fall weather again, and we enjoyed every minute of it! The boys and I spent our morning at a local park with some friends, had lunch out and about, and then picked up Katelynn and came right home for more outdoor fun until dinnertime! We can never get enough of the great outdoors this time of year!
Ryan is such a big boy on the kid's playset now. He can climb up and slide down all by himself.
Love this kid! He has such a fun personality!
Did you notice Katelynn has adopted my witch's cape? She has worn it non-stop for the past two days as soon as she gets home from school. (And if you are wondering what is in her hair.. today was the day we sprayed her hair blue for school spirit day so her scalp still has the remaining blue in it.)
