Sunshine and mudpies

After what was perhaps the longest winter, this weekend finally brought the return of sunshine and warm weather. The sandbox was cracked, and the bikes were dusted off. Colton enjoyed the new wonderland of the outdoors. A year ago, he sat passively in his bouncy seat. This year he is off exploring. We try not to think about all the gross things he had in his mouth.

Jared made his own discovery, mud. Oh yes, the boyhood wonder of sand and water. His outdoor kitchen was the perfect cooking space he needed to make us "cocoa." He mixed it, stirred it, measured it, and served it In a variety of cups, bowls, and plates. He kept himself very busy, and he carried a smile the entire time he was working. It is safe to say he spent no less than 90 minutes just in the mud. It is also safe to say that both boys earned their bath time. Welcome warm weather, we missed you.
