The Weather

I just had to do a quick blog to post the forecast for Seattle:

After months of rain, this is what we live here for - summer sunshine. We have been out and about enjoying the weather. Just went down to the block for a little happy hour with some of our neighbors, including one of Colin’s preschool friends. The boys had a great time running around, while we had a couple beers and ordered some pizza.

We don’t have any plans for the weekend other than being outside to enjoy the weather and of course there are always house projects to be finished. We are almost completely done with the sandbox, patio and planters, although I am now questioning my logic on having a huge sandbox so close to the house - it is like living at the beach. More sand ends up on the patio, grass and in the house than anywhere else.

Tidbits:

  • Colin saw two butterflies and a dragonfly outside and said “There are so many creatures to be seen in Seattle”
  • I went to pick up Colin at his friend Matthew’s yesterday and he was covered in dirt - his whole face was dirty. Just like I pictured a little boy.
  • Holden has been so clingly lately. He always wants to be picked up and just constantly hovers around my legs in the kitchen while I try to make breakfast, lunch and dinner.
  • The other day there was a huge picture of a moon rock in the paper with a headline that said “Moon” in it. I asked Colin what he though it was and he said a rock. Then I said “Where do you think it is from?” I explained that lots of times the words around the picture will tell you about the picture and he said “Oh, then it is from the moon.”
