Kids had swimming this morning. Daddy took them while I did some photography work. While they were gone I decided to run to the post office and library . . . and locked myself out. We’re borrowing my parents truck for dump runs and their key chain doesn’t have a key to our house. So when I got back I headed into the back yard. Our side yard had always been dirt. Seemed liked too much space to waste so about a month ago we turned it into a courtyard. We eat dinner out there almost every night and then the kids run around outside. We’re loving it.
Yesterday Aidan hung up some chair hammocks we got on vacation in Mexico. I sat and read in one of the chairs until they came home. Then they all decided to pile in to one chair together. We ended up spending hours outside. Rocking, playing in dirt piles, riding bikes in the backyard, rocking again, eating dinner and then running through the sprinklers when they came on.
If you live somewhere that can hit 120 degrees, I guess you really have to enjoy spring.
