finally some sunshine!

saturday and sunday were full of sunshine, and we spent most of both days outside working on the yard (finally...it needed it). aaron loaded up 510 gallons worth of those lawn bags filled with leaves, weeds, branches and all sorts of other dead stuff. emma kept busy playing in her house and with her bike, while tyler played with some friends and accompanied emma on her bike ride. the nice thing about a fenced backyard is that we can let the kids out to play and not have to worry that they'll run off. it's pretty cool, and emma seems content to be left outside playing. i don't know how long this sunshine will last, but we're surely taking advantage of it.
