Madison didn't have time to get bored THIS weekend! Saturday the weather was so very cold (around 55 degrees) and she must have been confused as to what season it was by the outfit she put on...A snowflake dress and candy cane leggings!!!
There had been many times we've tried to get her face painted and she didn't want any part of it. All it took was babysteps. She talked about it all morning and couldn't wait to get her face done. A little rainbow and a flower to brighten the cloudy day.
Saturday's outings ended with her swimming class. I'm looking forward to the summer when she is able to get in the water as often as possible to practice those moves.
With the weather still not warming up and the threat of rain most of the day, we got out early for a quick hike and a search for letterboxes. Madison had her own agenda. In school this week they were learning about amphibians and wanted to find tadpoles. Little did she know that there was a slim chance we were going to find them, BUT it did get her out and she LOVED the hikes today. BTW...we didn't find those tadpoles!...We looked and looked and looked.
It's a shame that people choose to carve into the bark of trees...even in the middle of the woods they can't help but defacing them. :-( We named the tree the Alphabet Tree!
We go to a second park to find the letterboxes. It was two for two today! That doesn't happen very often. There are times we aren't able to find even one. With no complaining and having a really good time on the trails, Madison was still able to find the energy to play on the playground for a bit. There was a VERY cute video; however, I was not able to get it to load. As soon as I'm able to get it figured out, I'll try to get it downloaded to share with everyone! Have a great week. We are praying for a bit more sunshine and warmth in NC considering it's MAY!!!!
