Day's Off

This weekend was a quiet one for us. 

Sunday was cold, nasty, and it rained the entire day. 

But today was President's Day and the kids were off from school. 

It was a sleep in and have fun just doing whatever the kids wanted kind of day.

So after lunch we decided to go down to the park and take a few pictures.

It's still chilly enough to wear a beanie hat and not yet warm enough to wear flip flops.

I'm longing lately for days of Summer to be here but trying to soak the last of Winter up.

Because I'm sure when we're having the days of 100 degrees I'll be dreaming of cooler ones to come.

Funny how that all works.

It's been awhile though, since I've played with my camera in the sunlight, outdoors.

And it's so the best. 

Indoors I find to be such a challenge to get the lighting just right and to achieve the look that I want. 

But it's so much fun getting out in the sunshine and just going with it.

That's what we did today... we just went with it and "it" was beautiful.

I'm so happy to be linking up today with Laura from Bits of Splendor.

You should go over and check out her blog and get to know some other awesome bloggers all linking up and sharing their splendor in life.

Happy Monday!
