I could just read the question on his face, "What are these Daddy?" The local library has story time for smaller kids later in the week. We go and they do fun activities. Today, the kids made birthday party hats for Arthur's birthday.
#1 and I went to a local smalltown train station. An Amtrak passenger train comes by twice a day and we were there for the morning run. He loved every minute of it!
#2 swingin' at the park yesterday. The weather was next to perfect if not for the near gale force winds. Yes, it has been pretty windy these last few days. But, it is good to get out of the house considering the snow storm we just had a week and a half ago.
Our neighbors acquired seven horses about a week ago. #1 loves to walk over there to feed 'em an apple. The horse just behind #1 is the only one that'll come up and let him touch his nose.
It had been a little warmer than usual but Mother Nature decided to let us know that it was still winter. The storms that moved through the midwest overnight hit us pretty hard as well with hail and high winds (25 mph to gusts as high as 50 mph). Our front porch was covered with the freezing droplets as temperatures throughout March 1 fell well below freezing. We had to put our shorts and t-shirts back in the closets and don our winter coats once again.
