outside...finally

It was finally warm enough to go outside this week. So I found some rubber boots and out we ventured. Nadia got this new umbrella in BC. We don't really get rain in SK, so the next best thing is to stand under the melting snow drip from the roof.
We were getting a little bored, just walking around the small patch of grass we have exposed, so I pulled out some of the sandbox toys. And the kids went wild shoveling snow into their buckets.
Yesterday was almost hot on our deck. There was no wind and no bugs. The perfect weather for a picnic. It was so cute to watch them, especially Colin, who copied every thing Nadia did. Now Nadia asks to have a picnic for every meal.
And a little play-doh fun. Nadia made this cake for me. It's a purple circle with stars all the way around. She spent a very long time making those. My sweeties, I love them so much.
