Springy Sunday

Aside from the fact that "The Amazing Race" isn't on tonight, it's been a really rather nice day.

We capped the sunny, warm, afternoon by taking a walk as a family. Christopher was just taking the pup out for a walk as I was getting home from running a few errands. So we all went to wander around the block for the evening constitutional.

We've got a lot going on at the moment. We're debating paint colors for the exterior of the house, so much of the conversation was about the colors we were passing as we walking. I'd say we were looking at the flowers and the greening grass, too, but we're not even to the point of clearing out last year's remnants.

And then, as luck would have it, we ran across two of our neighbors who were also out chatting. After having spent the past 6 months seeing almost no one on the sidewalks, the past couple of weeks have seen a resurgence in walkers - both two-legged and four-legged. Suddenly we're back to living in a neighborhood of people who jog, stroll, walk dogs, and putter about in the yards.

Now if only the yards would catch up to us.
