it's a heatwave in minnesota!! it's currently 35 deg fahrenheit (2 celsius). if you're five this means only one thing: PUDDLES!!!!!
if this keeps up i might just see my lawn before april. (i am, of course, hoping for one more good snowstorm before spring.)

Great action shots!
We, too, seem to have spring. I am always fooled, and make plans to wash and put away the snow-pants, only to need them again sometime before mid-May...

great captures! just looking at those boots with all that water made me remember wearing bread bags inside my moon boots and *still* coming home with cold, wet feet! cocoa is the answer.

My boys would love to splash in those puddles with Lily! Looks like she had a blast!

Oh my word, awesome photos of the splashing, and LOVE the boots! We are just outside of the "You Must Own Boots" zone. I miss boots. But I don't know where in the world we would put them. No mud room and no convenient closet nearby to the back door here.
I'd like more snow before spring too but with it 41F at 9:21am on March 4th, I don't think so. Maybe an ice storm but I'd rather not.

Such fun! Your photos capture perfectly the joie de vivre of young Lily! I love them! Have a great weekend. Ros

love the last puddle photo! Lily's boots are so cute!

I like that you think splashing in puddles are fun! It makes me smile. I'm also hoping for another snow storm. We're trying to get up for some more skiing next week, after another 20 inches this week. However, on my walk home last night, while it was cold, there was the clear smell of blooming flowers in the air!

Great photos...and I'm loving Lily's purple rain boots and flowery coat! I have to admit that I'm a puddle jumper too (though I don't have pretty rain boots so it's a bit more messy!). I jump on foot, ride through them on my bike (the deeper and messier the better!)...one way I let myself remain young I guess!
