Springing Some Fun

Our lawn was finally mowed by hubby. I love the smell of grass and our front yard, though far from being manicured, looked really good now just like all our neighbors'. The kids go gaga over the prospect of going out, so while hubby was mowing the grass, Lei biked while Lance pretended to mow as well, rode his scooter and when she got tired of biking Lei decided to go swimming. It was a delightful sight, my little girl swimming right in our front yard. Everybody who passed by would stare and smile at her.

While Lei was swimming outside, Lance got ready for school. I drove him to school, practiced a little, ran errands and we remembered to buy sand for the kids' sand and water table. We bought that table when we first got here but we didn't use it outside and they used to play cars and dinosaurs on it. I don't know why we didn't bring it outside last summer but now it's out and they can finally play sand and water on it. We saw colored sand but they're pricey (10 CAD/bag). The ones that hubby got from the gardening section at Canadian Tire were just 4 CAD/bag. The colors were cute though anyway, Lei played the moment we got home before swimming again. Lance on the other hand was still in school but soon after he arrived home and a quick snack, they both played there.

Now, all I need is good weather, no more rains please! I'm in looove with Spring not much with summer because of too much sun (mosquitoes too!) but as long as the kids are happy playing outdoors I could stand the heat, it's hotter when they throw tantrums anyway :D
