We had the opportunity to spend all day Saturday outside as a family. It was one of the rare beautiful and warm days and we spent as much time soaking it up as we could!

We pulled the kids all over town in the sled; stopping by the manmade sledding hill and park at the gradeschool. The sledding hill is awesome - not too steep and a long, long run giving you plenty of time to slow down without anything to run into, making it very safe for the little ones. Kali and Corey LOVED it. Unfortunately I only have video of the sledding...not still shots.

The also loved the playground as usual. It's a bit different from our friends and family's playground pictures from other places in the states. We're still quite a way off from green grass, but it was still fun.

After the gradeschool we walked to the local mexican resteraunt for some tacos and encheladas followed by a stop at the sporting goods store for some Jelly Bellies. Corey fell asleep on Kali's lap on the way home, but was quick to say he wasn't sleepy any more after we got home.

I am so thankful for days like we had on Saturday. I love more than anything spending time with my family - especially outside! We live in a beautiful corner of the world and it's nice to be reminded of that every so often during the long winter months!

Ugh.

THIS is our weather by the hour for here today...
Particularly pay attention to the "feels like" column.
Because that is what it actually feels like.
Again.
It's going on it's second week.
And looks like it will continue at least through the weekend.
Can you say Spring Fever?
