A taste of Spring

Yesterday was a beautiful day here and we took advantage of it and enjoyed the sunshine.  When I got home from picking Bradley up from preschool we played outside.  I pushed him and Gavin on the swing.  It was Gavin's first time and he was totally CHILL! Bradley even stepped up as big brother and pushed him too.  I loved it because I was able to be inside and he was playing on the back porch and running all around the backyard exploring! He was shooting the bears with his “pow-pow” which was sticks he would find…….

Then he had this one particular pine tree branch that he peeled the outside layer off in pieces and then kept putting it back together.

He was determined to get all the pieces to fit back together like a puzzle onto the base of the branch.  So technical this one! Our little Engineer and gatherer! Then when Daddy came home after his nap it was off to the dirt bike races on their vroom vrooms.  Bradley loves riding alongside his Daddy.  I told Brad I was going to title this one YOU might be a REdNeck if you……. go dirtbike riding in your friendly neighborhood fenced in backyard with your son on his power wheel!  These two are a mess.  oh, well…I may not ever understand it, but this is the life of boys!
