too nice to be inside



















our sunflower seeds, so the squirrels won't get them. we have little water bottles covering the seeds so we can water them directly.

The weather has been so nice here lately. I think Spring has finally come! I love this time of year. We have been outside playing every day this week. We dug out the sunscreen and shorts and even the water table. We planted sunflowers, Siena tried riding her bike again, we went to a lot of parks,bbq and picnics and we ventured out to Rosevelt Island. We have lived here 6 years and I feel like I haven't done a lot of things in D.C. I have never been out to Rosevelt Island and it was so much fun. The kids loved it. It was really muddy because of all the rain last week but the kids loved that even more. We went along the muddy banks and threw rocks in. Ben almost gave me a heart attack because he was getting so close to the edge of the water when throwing rocks in. We saw a group of deer that we were able to get really close to. Siena got a kite for her birthday and was really eager to fly it. We finally got the chance to on the island. She didn't really get the concept but we did get it up for a little while. We are excited for the kite festival this weekend and hope we will be able to get the kite out again. So it was really nice to be out and see the kids play and get some sun.
