Fun in the Front

You wouldn't believe this, but our kids actually get bored being in the backyard. I guess we don't have enough play equipment out there ;)

Jack's favorite place in the whole world is out front. Abby and Josh think it's pretty swell, too. Their usual routine is running to the garage door and wanting me to open it. Then they proceed to take out every single giant toy. After 5 minutes they realize that all they really want to do is run around.

So, we give in and as long as they do not run into the street, we are all very happy. Today, we bugged our neighbors for a bit. The Lanpher's usually have their front door open and the kids get to see the puppies (they are full grown dogs, but for years we have referred to them as "puppies").

This is usually a daily ritual

Something new: climbing the wall to see the flowers

The kids are getting so used to everyone. They all gave Darby a hug! We are so lucky to have the bestest neighbors/friends around!
