Springtime Fun

Over the past few weekends, we have had a wonderful taste of springtime weather.  After tons of rain and some fairly cold weather, we have been outside soaking up the perfect temperatures and sunny skies.  Sydney's favorite phrase has become "I'm thinking we could play outside for a little bit".  She says it when returning home from errands, after her nap, and when she finishes eating.  I am so glad she enjoys being outside.

We have taken advantage of the weather by going to several of the parks near our house.  We have especially come to enjoy going to the Yates Mill Pond Park.  Sydney loves looking at the waterfall, and they have great hiking trails.

Happy girl!

Another favorite for Sydney is quickly becoming 'football'.  Football to Sydney is her daddy kicking the ball "high into the sky" while Sydney then chases it down and brings it back to him so he can do it again. This game has provided many laughs when the ball gets stuck in trees or gutters.  :)
