Feb 6 - What Did You Do Today?

here in redmond in the winter, lots of days are darkish and wet.  some days are sunny.  some days are dry.  but very few days are dry and sunny.  so what would you do on the first dry and sunny day of the year?

go to a park right after school and play baseball . . .

or play tag with daddy.  i'm it.  i'm going to tag you.  here i come.  got you.  you're it.  you can't get me.  i'm over here.  come and get me.  (noting the distances between the players, can you guess who is the fastest runner in the family?)

or play in the "sand" box.  first you dig a whole and throw in a pinecone.  then cover it up and give it a little stomp.

maybe a few more stomps . . .

maybe jumping on it would be better.

then ask Daddy to find your missing pinecone.

oh, on a side note, when you are playing around little people in the sandbox, its a very good idea to keep your head down, your mouth shut and your shirt tucked into your pants.  you never know when a little person will have a mistake and through lots of sand in the air.  you don't want sand in your eyes or your mouth or on your back (it's itchy.)

or play tickley troll with Momma on the bridge.

well, at least, that's what i did.
