A Little Outdoor Fun

We have been indoors a lot lately. Boogs is just finishing up a round of antibiotics for a double ear infection. The cedar pollen count in our area has been at a 17 year high for the past couple of weeks. I cannot go outside when the cedar pollen is up. Last weekend, we took a little break from the pollen by driving three hours north to Dallas for a family gathering. We spent some of our outdoor time jumping on the trampoline at my Uncle's house.


We spent most of our indoor time playing board games.

Boogs has spent quite a bit of time playing with the neighborhood kids. They have been having fun on all of their new riding toys. Boogs really enjoys the motorized ones.

We are having a day off from school today for a "Snow Day". Central Texas is not equipped to handle ice on the roads. Here are a few pics of how we have spent this day off. Too bad we will have to be in school/work on a lovely day in April to make up for being off today.
 Boogs wondered where all the snow was. He is used to snow at Grandmaman's house in Canada.
 Boogs had a great time prying ice off of the driveway.

 Boogs kept breaking big chunks of ice on his forehead. He is a goofy little guy.
 A friend from down the street came by to play and help with the ice removal job.
That would not be easy to drive on.

We should be back to wearing shorts on Sunday when our temperature gets back up to 75 degrees. Here's a link to a wonderful post of fun facts about Austin "Snow". It made laugh because it is so true.  http://www.mystatesman.com/weblogs/all-ablog-austin/2014/jan/23/36-facts-about-austin-snow/

Just because I think this is so cute, here is a picture of Boogs during our last "Snow" storm.
