Wishing for Spring

 This has been such a smoggy, cold, snowy, miserable winter. So you can imagine our excitement when the sun was out on Saturday and the temperatures got into the low 40's. It was cause for celebration-so we went off to our favorite park. As you can see, there was still quite a bit of snow on the ground, but that didn't stop these girls from having some fun(it also didn't stop Alyssa from dressing like it was spring weather). This is Ashley's favorite thing to do at this park. It is a double vine swing thing that she can go so high on.

With the help of her big sister, Ashley also conquered the rope pyramid. It doesn't look so impressive up close, but...

 when you step back a little you can see how big it really is. It is at least two stories high and that is Alyssa and Ashley right in the middle of it on their way back down.

We also celebrated by getting Slurpee's on the way home. We only wish that Daddy would have been feeling well enough to join us.
