The Four Seasons

In the past two weeks, we have experienced at least 3 of the four seasons:
Last Monday, March 14, we had 2-3 inches of snow. I bundled the boys up in two layers of clothing and we treked outside to play in the white stuff.




Tyson didn't really like the snow and prefered to swing instead. I think he was wishing for playing outside weather.
He got his wish because by Thursday, March 17th, it was warm enough to play outside on the swings at Grandma and Grandpa's House.

And by March 20th, the first day of Spring, it felt like SUMMER around here with temps in the 80s. In fact, I heard it was warmer in St. Louis on Sunday than it was in Miami!! I guess our Miami relatives will have to come visit us for a tropical get a way. Oh wait, it did just snow last Monday. Never mind.

We've been practically living outdoors. We eat our supper and then go outside. The neighbor kids wait for us and start trickling out of their houses. Usually by the time we send them home for "bedtime" (at least bedtime for our kids) we have about 9 kids at our house ranging in age from 14 years old to 14 months old and we usually have a basketball game, a soccer game, and someone wildly swinging a bat at a T. It's been fun so far and we'll take more sunny days and less snowy!
