fun in the sun.

We had an amazing weekend this past weekend. For the first time in over 250 days the temperature rose above 70 degrees! We drove down to Puyallup to spend the day with my parents and then left Carter so we could have a super fun date night. A little shoe shopping followed by dinner at the Crab Pot with our friends Jake & Kelly. If you haven't been, you have to go! It's so fun, messy and delicious! We ended the night at the U2 concert...such a great show! Earlier in the day we took full advantage of the sun. Carter is still obsessed with mowing the lawn, he has to do it everyday when we get home. So, no surprise that it was the first thing he did when we got to my parents!

My parents bought him an awesome fire engine he can ride around on. It took a few minutes for him to learn to love it, but then he never stopped riding it.

My parents neighbors came over with their grandkids for a little while. Their grandson, Max, just turned 2 and Carter and Max became instant best friends. They played together so well that later in the day, my parents took Carter back to Max's house to play some more!
Max was so sweet and even helped Carter put his hat back on. He knows the importance of good sun protection.I forgot to bring down swim trunks so we just let Carter run around in his diaper with the sprinkler. We had such a fun weekend and it made me so excited for summer! Can't wait for more backyard adventures, sprinklers, sunscreen and yes, even more mowing the lawn.
