it was warm(ish) today in the glorious Capital District, so Josh and i ventured out for an afternoon walk since he was having no part of napping.  here are the 2 things we discovered that can be done on the first spring-like day when the snow is melting in copious amounts:

1. Puddle Stomping – self explanatory really, you simply walk down the street disregarding your mother’s instructions about not going in deep puddles, and stomp away!  the results are fabulous – you will have soaking wet shoes, socks and cuffs, and your mother’s jeans will be quite spotted with rainwater also!

2. When your shoes, socks and cuffs are so wet that further puddle stomping is impossible (or your mother picks you up and carries you inside), get your mother to take you for rides in your daddy’s office chair in the basement.  it’s oodles of fun!!
