Here's a series of shots of Big Squirt practicing her "new trick".
We watched Big Squirt play soccer tonight. She has some awesome kicks...it's just that there was a future soccer star on the other team that always seemed to block our team's kicks when we got near the goal. The kids are improving and having fun and that's what's important.
She needs a boost between the second and third shot. She tried reaching the branch last summer, but wasn't even close. Now, it's a breeze.
The fourth shot shows her preparing for her dismount. She got a little scraped up on her hands from the bark, but no major injuries.
She'll probably be "hanging out" here this summer.
Meanwhile, Little Squirt enjoyed playing in the clubhouse. We moved all the "kitchen toys" out there the day before yesterday. They love taking the screen out of the window and playing "ice cream shoppe". She's busy preparing the next treat in this picture.

Big Squirt gets out of school at noon. Not sure what we'll do, but I'm sure we'll find something fun to do. We have options of geocaching and going to a parade and looking at tulips. Or, we could stay inside the house and be dry :)

Is it Tulip Time already? That is usually right around my oldest daughter's birthday.
Yes, 2 parades each day...today and tomorrow. We like going to the lighted evening one. It'll be cold, but not supposed to rain either night.
I can remember watching the VEISHA parade and the folks from Pella would be "marching" to promote their event the following weekend. Wouldn't it be nice if VEISHA was back to it's traditionally warmer time of year?
clone,
Yes it would be nice if it wasn't snowing for VEISHEA...at least it deterred potential rioters this year. I think it's kinda funny how they changed the dates for next year's VEISHEA already due to low turn out this year. There must be a fine line between low attendance/snow and hot weather/rioting possibilities.
