beautiful days

i just can't get myself to stay indoors these days. the recent weather has been about as close to perfect as we get around here. the kids and i biked our second 3 mile ride of the week yesterday (which pit-stopped at captain sundae), and we have taken numerous walks. today we went to the library and then plopped down in the backyard with a pile of books. we have also enjoyed our first picnic lunches of the year. these are our first picked flowers of the season --almost too tiny for the vase. :) the daffodils are in full bloom in our backyard. welcome spring!!
