It's been 50 degrees, or almost that warm, for the last four days. We are loving it! It is wonderful to walk outdoors and feel like the temperature really hardly changed from being indoors. Our windows have been open, and we are loving an indoor humidity reading of 50%, rather than the 17% of last week. There has been much puddle stomping, sidewalk running, and snowball throwing. Yesterday we even took a trip to the park to do some late evening playing before the sun set and it was time for the kidlets to climb in bed. It was so weird to be out and about with such warm temperatures, and so much snow on the ground still. We've been conditioned, this winter, to expect to be very cold when we look outside and see so much snow. The snow is shrinking all the time, but there is still plenty of it around.
For the record, Mr. Sneaky Pants was playing at the park too, but he was super busy playing with another little boy just his size at the park whose name was also Noah. They thought it was pretty neat that they shared the same name, and they were off doing other things where my camera wasn't.
Dr. Peds spent the evening torturing Sarah with snowballs, which she thought was hilarious for awhile, and then he sort of wore out his welcome and she ended up in hysterics. He threw snowballs at me and my camera too. I couldn't tell how close they were coming looking through my lens, and he thought that was quite humorous. And then he missed his aim and actually pelted my lens with a snowball, which I did not find humorous AT ALL. And I let him know about it. I even put myself in time out in the car for a bit, I was so angry. But he begged forgiveness, and so I got over it. And I took some neat pictures after that point, so I'm glad the lens was fine and that I got over it. Forgiveness is always best in the end, even when you're sizzeling mad.
All of these pictures are more crisp and colorful in real life.
