Slow Days

One of the things I love most about warmer weather is how we tend to slow down and enjoy all the little things that we ignore when it’s cold and we are in a hurry to get from here to there.

Like many people I know, I struggle with maintaining a positive attitude when the cold weather sticks around for months on end.

I am for sure a warm weather kind of girl. And when the weather finally does decide to stick around we spend our days in the slow lane.

Outside, sun on our faces, dirt on our hands.

Some of like to do yard work

And some of us just like to play

There is nothing better than an extra large stick according to Hud

Who needs a mulching machine when you have a Golden Retriever

I love this dog. He has been the best addition to our family

The boys get mad when I call him my favorite son 🙂

Blake made this speaker out of an old suitcase- it’s pretty cool and sounds awesome

He is leaving to head to Michigan for the weekend with the lacrosse team.

I will miss him.

But a certain girly has a birthday in a few days and I need to plan.

And Cole has got the crud and is home sick.

Eva says this is circus training

She looks like a bobble head here

When Eva showed these worms to Austin he said “Eva you are such a boy.”

The weather turned chilly again and we were back inside with a bunch of playdoh. Eva made a camp fire and roasted this “smore” until it was black. Then put fire coming out of it and gave it to Cole.

It’s Friday and the sky is sunny- off to enjoy it!
