12 on the 12th [03.12.12]

01.  Upside Down. The kids ran outside first thing this morning, even before breakfast. The weather was inviting and the spring air was filled with their laughter.

02. Laundry Day.  Laundry today or naked tomorrow. Or, at least underwear-less tomorrow.

03. Lunch Date. I had a noon Art Mom meeting at Brynlee’s school. I packed a lunch and the kids dined while I helped plan the schools upcoming Art Show and Auction.

04. Chalk. Sidewalk artwork, oh how I love thee.

05.  Park. We spent our afternoon sliding down park slides, flipping over bars and kicking around a soccer ball.

06.  Otter Pops. We’re getting an early start this year and I don’t even feel the tiniest bit bad about it.

07.  Knights of the Trampoline. With winter hats as makeshift helmets.

08.  Responsibilities. Typing up minutes from last week’s PTA meeting.

09.  Punch Balloons. The wind was just strong enough to carry the balloons across the yard, but not strong enough to make them leap the fence. The kids chased them around trying not to let them touch the ground.

10.  Story Time. Read our library books outside on the swing. The weather truly was dreamy and we wanted to soak up as much as possible.

11.  Decor. The guest room to Brynlee’s room transformation is coming along quite nicely. Although I’ve still been unsuccessful in finding the right fabric to recover the headboard.

12.  Muffins. Spence has been super busy at work lately and called and said he wouldn’t be home in time for dinner again. To make up for his absence I promised the kids a make-up Tuesday night FHE and let them pick whatever they wanted for dinner. They decided on breakfast served with blueberry muffins.
