Garage Picnic

The Set-up

The Posers

The Baby

Yesterday, after preschool, we had big plans for enjoying the lovely weather. After we ate our "picnic lunch," Olivia napped in her stroller, the big kids rode their bikes/big wheels and did side-walk chalk, and I worked on cleaning and clearing out the garage. Later in the evening, I prepared the chicken and vegetables for chopped chicken salad and when Joseph got home from work he and the kids headed outside again to BBQ and play in the yard. As we ate dinner, I noticed that Bentley's cheeks and nose were a little rosy from playing in the sunshine--my sweet little fair-skinned boy--next time I will remember the sunblock!

We are so eager for green grass to return but the sunshine and pleasant air will do for now. At least all of the snow has finally melted away from the shady corners of our yard :)

Isn't this weather glorious? Too bad it won't last past the weekend. But it is a sign of the lovely days to come!

Fun to have a picnic with such silly posers! And a cute baby who hasn't learned the art of posing just yet. She will pick it up quickly.

Living up here in the frozen north makes us appreciate the pleasure of warmer air and sunshine. Love our cute little kids, posers and non!
