It is not as though the weather has been fantastic, but we have managed to find enough rain-free times to enjoy some outside play time, usually with Lexy.
Nahla loves to climb trees right now, and our little tree in the backyard is a perfect size for a little monkey.
What a good puppy shaking a paw!
We even found a sunny morning to pull out all of the summer play toys and spend a couple of hours outside. It wasn't warm, but the sun felt glorious!
And Lexy was able to join us, thanks to her new 30 foot lead. I would love for her to be able to be off leash, but apparently Husky's are on-leash only dogs unless fully enclose...they really like to run!
Tyran being his usual happy self!

And the completed dam!
Then, out came the gold clubs and we destroyed it!
Outside play time is always my favourite with the kids. I am always amazed by what they find to do. Nahla spent about 10 minutes watching a worm move through the grass, then burrow into the dirt. This was only minutes after the creation on the dam, which she decided we had to build when she found a bunch of random sticks lying around from when our neighbours trimmed their little willow tree. I love the imagination that comes from a morning outside, and cannot wait until summer when I can spend every day out exploring with my kids.
