Throwing Helicopters

Throwing Helicopters

Today is the first day I've been home and not had a lot of school work to do in several weeks, so we headed outside this morning since rain is supposed to hit this afternoon. After getting some yard work done, I got out a broom and swept a bunch of "helicopters" (aka maple tree seeds) into a big pile and threw them up into the air. The boys got a huge kick out of it and immediately came running so they could take part in the fun too. They were probably throwing helicopters for 10 minutes. Isaac even ran up to the front of the house to show Jill his cool new "trick."
