Truly Happy Day for Kiddos

Since we are out of the deep freeze up here, we finally have a day warm enough for all the kids to play outside! Talk about a nice change of pace from being inside all day long every day. The kids enjoyed hanging out in the snow fort, climbing up and sliding down the small snow hill that has formed from scooping snow off the deck all winter, playing on the swing set, and just enjoying the warmth! Granted, it's not quite tropical shorts weather yet, but I think we all are beyond happy to be enjoying 25 degrees today! And no subzero temperatures again until Friday. . . yahoo!

With no school today, we had 3 extra "big kids" here all day long, but everyone got along well, played great, and had a really good day.

If I were you, I would have sent those big kids to school regardless of whether school was in session or not.
