Ruth's house

Spring break
has brought a bit
of cold and snowy weather this week.
This afternoon, however,
the sun came peeking out for awhile.
The kids took advantage
and spent some time outside.
Jordan and London
went over to Ruth's house.
Ruth lives across the street from us.
Her own kids are grown and gone,
but she loves the ones in the neighborhood
to come over and visit.
She has a porch swing
that they love to swing on in the summertime.
And a puppy they can throw the ball to when they want.
Today, she gave them a blanket to sit on
and brought out a bin full of Cabbage Patch dolls
to play with.
They love it. And her.


Happy Spring!

Isn't it wonderful to have a grandma just across the street? How she must love watching your girls play with those dolls and come over for a visit. Glad you had a few pleasant hours of good weather this week. Keep hoping, spring has to be near.
