Saturday morning, we went to take our 5 year pictures. Then, we went home and PLAYED OUTSIDE... in SHORTS... in MINNESOTA... in MARCH! It felt like summer - and everyone outside sure acted like it was summer!
We practiced riding our bikes, riding our scooters, using sidewalk chalk, blowing bubbles... we decided to dig for worms in Mommy's flower bed... (the hats were because the sun was so bright)...
...then we needed to take a break because we were so hot!
We convinced Daddy to get out the bean bag toss game, and sang Mickey Mouse's bean bag song to remember all the rules of throwing during the game. We even sent Aunt Renee funny messages because it was SNOWING in California while we were playing in the sun!!
After we ran out of "fun" in the front yard, we moved to the backyard -- and spent a few hours playing on our swing set. Most of the time, it was "Bucky" (the pirate ship), Brooke was "Cubby" reading her map of Neverland, Kylie was "Izzy" sprinkling pixie dust on everyone so they could fly, Neela was "Jake", and Mommy was "Peter Pan". When Daddy came around, he was Captain Hook or Captain Morgan -- depending on where Cubby thought we were :-) Neela and Kylie also enjoyed playing parrots on a perch, and repeating "everything" anyone said to them.
To end the night, we had a picninc on the deck with Nicole and Brian. It was a great night to be outside - we even had a few mosquitos show up to make it really feel like summer!!
(Oh.. but Daddy said it's supposed to be 30 for a high sometime next week, so we didn't put ALL of our winter stuff away yet -- just a few things!)
