Bring me sunshine!

Today feels like the first real day of spring! It's absolutely glorious outside and even a bit warmer than it has been. It's one of those days when you feel completely glad to be alive. Gorgeous.

I love this time of year - when all the leaves are starting to bud on the trees and everything feels like it's waking up again. The boys are pretty hardy and play in the garden whatever the weather but, by this time of year, they start to simply use the garden as an extension of the house as they don't have to wrap up too warm so it's not a big deal to go out. I love watching them and this weekend has been lovely as it's marked this year's beginning of the use of the garden as another room.

The oldest has set up a police station in the new workshop (a use we hadn't thought of originally) and has been doing house to house enquiries most of the weekend. This has mostly consisted of him knocking on the back door, shed door and workshop door and telling the baddies to come out!

Spring has definitely sprung and I can't wait for a few more days like this!
