2 1/2 hours

Is how long "J" & "J2" played in the sandbox yesterday!! When it is just "J" and I he will only last about 20min. But, with his cousin to play with yesterday there was no stopping the sand.

"J2" was covered head to toe with sand. Apparently he feels that throwing sand or dumping it on your head is a very good thing to do. My oh so clean son would have nothing of it and remained fairly clean, which was surprising considering the sand that was flying.

My sister and I along with Baby "A" sat at the table, I in the sun, the other two in the shade. Having cold (non-alcoholic) drinks and snacks. It was a glorious, glorious day. It was very, very close to feeling like it was indeed summer already.

If this is what is in store for us this summer, bring it on!!
