Sidewalk Chalk

This past Thursday and Friday (April 11th and 12th), it snowed between 6 and 8 inches here.  Yes, that's right. It's April.  And it's snowing.  We are not happy about it.  A few days before the snow came, the kids and I went out and enjoyed an afternoon with sidewalk chalk.  It was still a pretty chilly day (high of 46), but after being cooped up all winter, we were willing to bear a little cold to get outside:)

(Here's the snow that was left before the latest snowstorm)

Elijah tried the chalk, but he was most interested in walking up and down this little lip in cement.  Very exciting:)

Bella decided to stomp in the snow for a while

And here's what it looked like just a few days later :(

I didn't want to leave you with a picture of winter-y snow, so here are some tulips I bought to bring a little Spring inside.  Here's hoping real Spring is on its way!
