When the weather is nice . . .
I just love to be outside with my kids. I can’t stand to be outside when it’s too hot so there are probably months in the summer when I don’t take the kids outside at all, but on days when it’s nice, I just can’t stay in. These are the days I neglect all my housework and spend as much time as I can outside. We started our day with a wagon/bicycle ride to the local old folks home where we participated in a Monday RS meeting program, then we 
rode home, did a few chores then it was back outside for a picnic and play. We invited the neighbors over to join us. Charlotte had much fun playing ‘ring-around-the-rosie" with Makenna. they’d fall down before finishing the song and then kick their feet in the air and laugh. After a haircut and a trip to the grocery store we spent some time outside at Grandma Cochran’s house (beware an upcoming blog involving a gas grill and someone’s hair!)
