Spring is FINALLY here

Warm(er), sunny weather has finally come to us in New England (mixed in with some rain and chilly mornings, of course) and spring feels great! The kids can't get enough of being outside and the fresh air is good for all of us.

Finley's been experimenting with croquet and loving setting up his own course for himself and his sister.

The swingset and sandbox in our backyard are finally defrosted and back in action.

Finley's love of sports continues to shine through and he is thrilled that he can dunk his basketball as well as take shots from "farther away."

All the local playgrounds are returning to our memory after the frozen winter and it is fun to check out different ones each afternoon.  Last week, we were at Rideout Park and the thrills were all around.  Middle school kids playing ultimate frisbee, kites flying, baseball diamonds to race around, commuter line trains passing nearby, and of course - the playground.  Dagny LOVES climbing and sliding and this structure is one of the best ones for tikes her size.  

After watching her go up, down, and around for a while - Finley found a way to play with her.
