A Little Bit of Summer

We had two really warm days (one was a record breaker) amidst the normal spring rain and cool weather. My kids were really excited, and spent as much time outside as they could.
Elisabeth made wishes and blew dandelion seeds all over the yard.
Benjamin helped his dad dig up the dandelions in the lawn. Unfortunately Mom and Dad were not in a summer mind set, so we didn't even think about sunscreen. Our kids were all sunburned. Oops! Emilyanne got sunburned the least, because she had on long sleeves and pants. (She wanted to change, but it just never happened and now she is glad)
We found some tulips that we didn't know were in our yard. Yeah! That made it feel like spring.
The kids spent hours on the swing set.

They invited the neighbor girls over and just played and played. It was a nice break in the weather, because today we are back to clouds and rain and cool temperatures.

Don't you love that Elisabeth spread the dandelion love...she is so cute though how could you ever stop her. Your lawn doesn't stand a chance.
