Sunny Afternoon

Although we recently had some more snowfall, this afternoon was quite enjoyable! The clouds parted and we saw the sun again!

Only a day or two ago, Layla and I were wondering what Tom-Tom our cat was so focused on out the window, and he had spotted a couple Robins!

Today when we took Lewis out for a walk to the playground, we spotted a ladybug in the grass!

Spring is slowly, but surely coming!

While at the playground, we happened to meet up with Arika, a friend of Layla's from her class at school. After playing at the playground together for a while, Arika came over for a little impromptu playdate! And the girls made the first sidewalk masterpieces of the year! I always love seeing children's artwork on sidewalks!

So here's a look at what the girls came up with:

This last one is a photo of Lewis at the playground! It's one of his favorite places in the world! He had so much energy today and was so happy to be back at the playground! This is a picture of him sliding down the slide. Yes, that's right. Last fall I taught him to slide down a slide! It's really quite funny to see, as his legs are so thin that he looks so top heavy.

It's really quite a sight! But we are still on the look out for more signs of spring! I'm looking for plants, Dan's looking for gophers and Layla's looking for opportunities to not wear her jacket!
