Today was supposed to hit +19 for the temperatures, but it was overcast and a bit windy so it didn't feel that warm. It was warm enough, but I was thinking closer to summer temps. Oh well, we made the most of our day anyways. Yesterday was fabulous, and I got tons done in the yard and cleaning out a bit of the garage. I love the mood spring puts me in. I have motivation to clean, organize and refresh everything. Today we played outside a lot. I took Maiya and Tyson to the park in the afternoon. They had a lot of fun, and even cleaned up some litter. To make our walk around the park more fun, I told them to go on a treasure hunt. Maiya kept picking up these orange wrappings from construction that had blown all over the park. So it ended up that they just kept finding more and putting them in the garbage there. A nice way to occupy them as well as clean up the park a bit. Afterwards the kids came home from school and played outside with friends and rode their bikes. I love that they are doing this again. What a great feeling! Damian had cubs tonight, so I dropped him off at Draytons house and picked up Presley.

She is staying with us for 7 days while her parents are in Mexico. Maiya is so excited and has already got her head full of all of the wonderful adventures they will have and all of the great plans she is devising. We'll see if those dreams come to fruition. Well, off I go to watch "Chuck" with Grant. A very fun show! Oh, and Catcher lost his very first tooth today, and is looking forward to compensation, hahaha!
