Backyard Happenings, continued

Our tree is in full bloom! This is one of my absolute favorite times of the year....



Sydney loves this tree too :)


Also in the backyard.....I love that we can just leave the door open and Owen and Sydney can come in and out as they please on days like today. It's nice that Sydney is old enough to do this on her own, and I can stay in and get lunch cleaned up while they happily play outside. I love that I can look out of my kitchen window while doing dishes and catch moments like this:


Giggling loudly as they take turns going down the slide and landing on each other in the back.



Followed by an impromptu hug.....
