Summer Sledding in February

I'm not sure where you live and what your weather is like, but we've had some exceptional days lately. The last three days have been such a tease, with temperatures in the 70's. Just beautiful! Makes me sad because I know its not here to stay! We sure are enjoying it though. We spent Sunday afternoon outside washing cars, the girls rode their bikes and even pulled out the Barbie jeep for a spin.

Yesterday, my oldest, Jessica, came in and said, "Mom, we're playing the coolest game!". I went outside to see what was going on. At the neighbor's house (my kids think its their second home!), the children had found a left-over piece of linoleum from their house. They put a throw rug over it and have been sliding down the hill in the front yard. They've named it "Summer Sledding".

How cute is this?






These pictures were taken just a few minutes ago. As I am typing right now, I am looking out my back windows watching them with sticks as big as Emma Grace is tall, wandering happily back into the woods. I am so thankful that we live in a neighborhood where my kids can truly be kids!

I hope that all of you are having a great day today!

Love,
Tonya
