First Day of Spring

We couldn't have asked for a better day to start out the spring. We were able to wear true spring clothes, play at the park in the warm sunshine, enjoy making each other laugh, do our traditional mini spring photo shoot, and eat ice-cream all the way home. There was a lot of love and happiness today. The only thing we were missing was daddy. He was back in DC visiting his family and attending an ENT conference. We were definitely thinking of him though!
