Wordless Wednesday::Into The Woods

A Valentine From Mother Nature

The weather on Valentine's Day was nothing short of incredible!  After countless weeks of bitter cold temps and lots and lots of snow, the warm (almost 60 degrees!) weather was a welcome reprieve.  We headed out to get some fresh air and explore the world that we had been shut in from for quite some time.

By the time we got back to the house the girls white tights had turned a lovely shade of grey from all the puddle jumping, and their hands were rather dirty from all the exploring!  We peeled their clothes off of them, washed up and got into snuggly warm clothes while we waited for our friends to arrive for dinner.  What a gift of a day!  A true promise of things to come!

After the Storms

Today when we got back from our weekly trip the library, we had to explore all the puddles and the "pond" that now resides in our backyard.

First up, puddle jumping.  

Next, a visit to the "pond" formerly known as our cutting garden.  

After all our splashing, jumping, kerplunking and wadding, we headed in to dry off, have some lunch and warm up.  

It was a great morning!

Have a wonderful rest of the day, dear ones. 

We'll see you tomorrow.
