One of the best things about living in Saint Louis is spring. Growing up in Wyoming, spring usually meant snow, mud, and cold temperatures with warm weather finally showing up sometime in May or June. While we get our fair share of torrential rain, tornadoes and floods, the wonderful warm weather can't be beat. It will pop out and surprise you with a nice 80 degree day in the middle of the week right when you are longing for flip flops, wading pools and popsicles. Thursday was one of those days. When I got home from work the boys were already outside (Brad fixing the fence, and Mike supervising Brad), I quickly changed into a pair of shorts and some flip flops, grabbed the sidewalk chalk and joined the fun.
After a while we all began to get hungry, but didn't want to retreat into the climate controlled confines of the house, so we decided eating outside was in order. Steaks were grilled, potatoes were baked, the high chair was dragged outside and for the first time of the year we enjoyed dinner on the deck. Ah spring!
