Outside

2023-04-16

I spent a lot of time outside this week. We ate lunch outside, we had Recess three times, Dad and I went for walks, we tossed the baseball, we tossed bean bags. We even played cards, although that was inside (when the internet was out for the night). And we went to Jonathan's house one night and sat around the fire. Well, the parents sat around the fire - Jonathan and I played with LEGO in his room, and then we found some sticks and had a battle on the hill behind his house.

Of course, we also did school. Going to work with Dad every morning is great. Mom and I are much more productive being out of the house.

Here are the pictures for the week:

Ice cream on the first really hot day!

And after all that excitement, I was ready to work on my new battle scene as soon as school was done on Friday. Here it is:

We also watched some baseball this week, and then we had a bunch of snow on Sunday afternoon. It was almost 90 degrees earlier in the week...and now we have over six inches of snow on Sunday night (and it is still falling).

That was my week. Take care!
