I don't know if any of you noticed that this past Friday happened to be a beautiful day here in Illinois. Well it was for our part of the state anyways. We did not do anything special but we did get to play outside after school. The kids and I played for a few hours as a matter of fact. When Ken came home he also joined us in playing outside. We played catch with all three kids and they actually got to ride their bikes a little as well. Aidan rode a small bike for the first time and he just loved it. He really did not know how to pedal the bike yet but he just pushed it around with his feet. It was still a little muddy from all the snow melting so I kept the kids in their rain boots so that we could just rinse them off when we went inside.
When Ken was home he was walking me around the yard telling me the projects that he wanted to start this year. I know that he wants to seal the driveway and we would also like to get the garage painted as well. Then he started telling me that he would really like to give the kids a larger play area. We currently have a small slide and a sand box as well. I would not mind getting rid of the sand box and checking out larger wooden swing sets to replace it. It would keep the kids more entertained and cut down on the mess that sand brings. I really like the one pictured above. I know the kids would love the club house up top and the one on the bottom. Madison absolutely loves to swing so it would be right up her alley.
One thing is for sure and thats that our whole family is looking forward to spring. We really want to make a lot of home improvements this year on the outside of our home. It would be nice to have a big play area for the three kids to enjoy themselves while we are getting other jobs done.
