Spring: The Good, The Bad

The Good: Warm, Sunny, Breezy weather... perfect for line-drying the laundry.
The Bad: That same warm and sunny weather.. is perfect for melting snow and ice, which turns our driveway into MUD...this picture doesn't do justice, but I didn't want to walk down to the bottom to get a 'better' picture. And No we don't drive our van up it right now (oh, how I miss our 4wheel drive vehicles)... we walk up and down the side (the kids love it..because it's in the 'forest'! :0)

But I will take the bad.. because WE LOVE THE GOOD! It'll be just a short time and the mud will only be a part of our 'bad springtime memories'.... okay.. it may be awhile before the mud is gone.. but still.. give me 50-60 degree weather...WE'RE LOVING SPRINGTIME!!!

Oohhhh, do the kids 'slide' down the mud slope?!?? That'd be lots of fun! You'll have to drop a load of gravel there...then you can drive on it!

Mel- NO! the kids aren't allowed to play on the driveway.. so no sliding down the mud! :) It would take more than 'one' load of gravel... much more. It needs blacktop, but $$$$.

yikes that looks like it gets pretty messy! But ohh, the nice weather is wonderful isn't it? Cole & I were just talking about how glad we were we had a blacktopped driveway! And yes, that takes lots of $$$ so good thing it was like that before we moved in ;) Have fun!
