Fortunately, we've had a few beautifully springy days here and there. This past Sunday was absolutely gorgeous - 75 and sunny! It was the perfect day to be outside. The girls played outside almost all day, while I relaxed in the hammock.
At one point, Aaron and Maisie went to run an errand. Ella wanted to stay home and play, so she and I stayed outside, me still in the hammock. It wasn't too long before I had some company, though!
She climbed in there with me, laid back, and enjoyed swinging gently in the sun.
Well, for about a minute. Then it was time to start making silly faces for the camera!
Silly pictures were followed by her jumping off and digging in a little dirt pile. She poured water into the dirt to make mud, then made up a game that involved throwing it at me! I was still in the hammock so I tried to wrap it around myself, but she managed to get the mud in anyway. I climbed out to brush the mud off while she laughed hysterically. "I got the mud on you! It looks like poop! I get two points!!"
Then, to add insult to injury, she got in the hammock and told me I couldn't swing anymore because I had to push her.
So I pushed her for a while, until she was ready to go in for a much-needed bath.
It was a beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
