All Together

I promised that my next post would include a picture of McKenna.  Today was a bonus because not only did I get McKenna in a picture, I ended up with everyone in a picture.



Tonight the kids are busy readying the house for St. Patrick's Day.  There are more than a few leprechaun traps in our house.  Personally, I can't handle taking care of one more person at this point so I'm hoping the little guys are sneaky enough to avoid the traps.   But I hear it's hard for them to pass up Lucky Charms!
 We have continued to spend every afternoon after school playing with the neighborhood kids.  I'm happy to say that there is not much involved from my end beyond visiting with my neighbors and watching children play from afar  The kids happily entertain themselves and there has not been any fighting, bickering or otherwise...yet.  It was obvious today that the kids are starting to get tired.  The running was a little slower and the bike riding a little less.  They even spent some time coloring in the garage.  
It has been amazing to see how the warm weather has positively affected everyone's mood and energy level.  It is so nice to be outside and amoung friends so much.  Next week I start work for Bloomsburg so I will miss a few evenings a week of play time outside so I feel so blessed to have enjoyed this past week with the kids.
I hope you all enjoy your weekend and catch some of the beautiful sunshine.
