Summer Playgrounds

We Did IT!

Our school earned a 50K grant for our first playground in 15 years! Thanks to those that help vote! We finished 6th out of tons of entries.

Morning Walks

The weather has been getting slowly better. The sun is coming up earlier and earlier, so by 7am there is daylight lurking outside our windows. When it's not completely pouring I like to get a walk in with Molly before she and we have breakfast. E rides her bike, N settles into the jogger and Molly trots next to us. We're all a pretty well oiled machine. We walk to a park about 1 mile away, the kids play, and then we head home again. Though we're walking mostly through neighborhoods I still am pretty aware of the speedy traffic about, so we all wear reflective vests and whatnot, and Molly get's to wear this sweater that makes us giggle!

Spring Break - Day 3

The thought of taking another ferry ride this week wasn't really that appealing, but the weather was so great, and E wasn't going to let me back out this promised trip to Bainbridge Island. We grabbed Annie (her partner in crime) and made our way across the Puget Sound, again. We hit my favorite Blackbird Bakery, ran around 2 playgrounds, and stopped in at my favorite little feed store/nursery/cafe to check out the baby chicks and have lunch. It was a full day, but not overly exhausting and in the end I was glad we did it. These girls are connected at the hip, and were even requesting that I refer to them as sisters all day. They kept N endlessly entertained, and they're not shy in front of the camera either...

Make Ya Jump, Jump!

I've said it before and I'll say it again; if you need to wear out your kids go here!
