Today was AMAZING! It was warm-ish and a tad windy but we were determined to get outside and the afternoon turned out pretty good. This morning we had papa Gary & Grandma T over for Cinnamon Rolls, which were, as always, great. Little did they know we had ulterior motives, we had them help us put the trampoline up that the kids got for Christmas.
Someone was pretty excited and loved jumping.
What's up Dawg? Wanna jump with me? ;) |
She is pretty good at jumping, guess it's all that practice at Aunt Sharon's house.
Later we did LOTS of yard work. We transplanted some of the Iris' that have been coming up and are overpopulating. Addison was teaching Greyson how to water the flowers. I am thinking by the time we get done planting in a few months the kids will probably be able to water for me while I sit back on the porch and monitor every thing...maybe that's wishful thinking.
Daddy raked up all the leaves from under the porches and Addison was super excited to be able to play in them and throw them around. She thought it was pretty fun when Daddy would rake them into a pile and she would stand in front of him and throw them in the air so they were in nothing resembling a pile anymore. She did eventually help him pick them up and put them in the bucket.
We had gotten mommy's old tricycle out earlier in the day and when Greyson disappeared we saw him playing on the tricycle. He thought he was a pretty big guy. He is good at "driving" things. He has ridden Addison's little power wheels 4-wheeler more than she has. He is getting his own for Easter. I have a feeling we are going to have to charge it...ALOT.
After we did all that yard work and found a few worms we decided to go fishing. Addison was super excited about going fishing and once it was mentioned she continually asked if we were ready to go fishing yet. When we did go fishing, Greyson decided to hang out in the back of the ranger and eat a worm lure (minus the hook) while Daddy and Addison were fishing. The fish weren't biting too well and Greyson was starting to get a little cranky and tired so we went home.
He must have gotten a second wind when we got home because Daddy, Addison, and Greyson all jumped on the trampoline for a while, and he was giggling and laughing the whole time.
We were so busy today it is hard to believe that it was only a Saturday. As much as we could still use Sunday to work on more stuff I have to admit that I am glad it is going to be a rainy day tomorrow. After today I am looking forward to a lazy rainy Sunday. It will be a good day to let the ducks swim a little bit and watch movies. Especially after the hour less of sleep we get tonight.
