Snapshots

1. Our new rope swing in the backyard.  We surprised the girls with swings while they were away at Grandma and Grandpa's house.  2. Chalkboard panels on our door give the girls something to do in our room without bringing in a ton of toys!  3. Poesy in her playhouse.  4. & 5. We found Hope's old Little Tikes table in our basement and happened upon this kitchen at a flea market, so we set up a little kitchen area outside for the girls.  We are trying to fill our backyard with lots of fun things to encourage outdoor play.  Our yard stays extremely shady, so it's the perfect for just that.  :)

I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day!  Johnny and I went to a concert and had a day sans-children where we did... well, whatever we wanted!  It was really nice.

    I had a play kitchen outside when I was a kid, and it was great! Mud, leaves, water, etc made for great ingredients, and it was super easy to clean off.

    Love seeing your little lovelies playing..reminds me so much of my sister and I. We had a Little Tikes table, too. It was fun to play "restaurant," especially when grilling hamburgers and such (grew up in Arkansas). Reading your blog from China - ♡ - thanks for sharing a peek of your side of the world!
    p.s. rope swings are awesome! Andddd, love the dress!! Happy Spring to you!
