Spring time in Washington State

The weather was gorgeous today in SW Washington. I think our high got near 70F and it was sunny. All the kids in the neighborhood were out in shorts, sun dresses, flip-flops drawing with chalk in the street (yes, street...the only traffic on our loop are people that live here).
It was so nice my older son, Owen, asked to take the baby, Jack, outside. I was like, "knock yourself out." But I wasn't sure how Jack would take to the grass in our yard. My other kids HATED grass their first time out. I got him dressed and Owen took him into the sunny backyard to explore.

For the record...he loved it.
The boys enjoying the nice weather: Owen (9 1/2) and Jack (9 months).
And, yeah, our yard needs mowed. I was going to do it this afternoon but I was feeling really crappy. I almost got the mower out and let Owen do it. He did it once last summer and enjoyed it but he didn't get it very even. I just cut it a couple weeks ago. It's hard to find a time to mow when it's always raining or wet. Also makes the grass grow fast.
And a bonus of son #1:
