How I Overcame Laziness Today



Yay, Spring!



I embraced Springtime today. 

It is mid-March and we are in the throes of Spring here in Vegas.  The weather has been just gorgeous lately and I'm realizing that I will be committing a sin if I don't get out and take advantage of our glorious outdoors during these glorious conditions.  I'm serious about the sinning thing... I think anyone not spending a significant amount of time outdoors right now will have to answer for it at the judgment bar in our day of reckoning.

I had to do my run on the treadmill today since I chose to do it during the girls' nap/quiet time.  But being that our treadmill is in the garage, I opened that door and let the sunshine and fresh air stream in, blasted some music, added in some boxing/kickboxing on the heavy bag between miles to make things interesting and... I felt fantastic. 

And it didn't end there:  After that workout, I got the girls ready so we could head to the park and play, play, play.

We indulged in some of our favorite activities on the way to and from the park as well:


Enjoying the "beautiful" dandelions.
I didn't have the heart to tell them they're actually weeds.



Berry stomping:  they LOVE this!



Singing "Popcorn Popping" under the apricot(?) tree!

I doubt it's an apricot tree, actually.

The girls got filthy dirty and wore themselves out.  They could barely keep their eyes open during dinner.  And, boy, did they earn their bath!



Sheer joy!



Ahhh, my kind of day!  I did NOT feel lazy today!
