A Fun TwistSo the weather here today didn't start out so great. We had a thunderstorm complete with a torrential downpour this morning which meant that Ashton's softball game was canceled tonight. But by lunchtime the sun was out and shining bright!
So after Ashton got home from school, had a snack, and a did a little homework, we put on some play clothes and headed outside to finish her homework. Yep I said finish her homework, my friend Amanda had done spelling words with her daughter outside with sidewalk chalk the other day and I thought it was genius. So we busted out our sidewalk chalk and Ashton practiced her spelling words on the sidewalk while Landry had a complete blast "coloring" with her chalk.
Once we finished the spelling words there was enough pretty spring-like weather left over for some scooter riding. It was a fantastic afternoon and I loved being outside with the girls even if it was a bit on the windy side...I will take a nice warmish wind over rain any day!
