Spring swimming!

Geneva, Olivia, Chloe and Naomi have a swim party in the middle of the kitchen.
Naomi is in an enthusiastic, over-the-top smiling phase...




The girls got an urge to swim and being that it is still in the 30's and 40's outside, the sprinkler was out of the question. So, we compromised and brought the kiddie pool into the kitchen! I filled it with warm water, they "cooked" soup and potions then we had a bucket brigade to empty the pool of water afterwards. A foretaste of summer fun!
p.s. We have a yard full of beautiful crocuses and many awakening perenials-poppies, chives, hardy geraniums, yarrow, daylillies, lavender, lamb's ear, thyme, irises, catnip, primroses, lily-of-the-valleys, blueberries, garlic, tulips, onions, daffodils and catmint. The snow is 85% gone. Spring is coming!

Wow, you are too creative and smart!

You must put picturesof your flowers up. We can't get the bulb kind here like that. I so miss tulips.
