Springtime

We had the first really warm day when there hasn't been snow on the ground or the ground saturated with water yesterday. The girls spent the day outside running around which was nice because they weren't destroying the house. Alison took several trips around the block on her bike. Her bike however, is just a bit small. Kris and I think that we'll have to end up getting her a bigger bike, probably a 24" 10 speed mountain bike. It's hard to believe that she isn't even 7 yet and she already needs a 24" bike. Plus, she only started riding her bike without training wheels last year. But her seat post on her bike now is at its limit and she can't extend her legs when pedaling.

Sarah was helping her friend next door practice for softball. Ali wanted to help as well so Sarah tossed thee ball to her. Ali missed and POW! She took it right under her left eye. Her cheek was all red and swollen last night. Hopefully the ice she kept on it all night will keep it from turning black and blue.

Finally, last night as the girls were getting cleaned up and ready for bed, Ali was complaining that her arms hurt. After looking at her I saw why, her arms were slightly sunburned. Sarah also had a bit of a pink face from being outside. We'll have to start remembering the sunscreen from now on.
