The Great Outdoors

We truly enjoyed this weekend! Hopefully, this is a sign of things to come. Beautiful days and happy kiddos.

Saturday morning we decided to head out to Eagle Creek Park. After packing a quick lunch, we headed out. We took several different trails. The kids climbed trees. We played at the playground.... ok, actually they pretty much stayed at the merry-go-round. We had trauma at said merry-go-round. Brandon had a turn of spinning the merry-go-round. While running (it must go fast to be fun), he tripped. Landing flat out in the dirt, practically under the dang thing, he rolled over, jumped up and hopped on with all the other kids. Jess, the only one on, was sitting on her knees facing outward. One big spin sent her face first into the dirt. There wasn't really the roll over, jump up like her brother. Poor girl had dirt from head to toe. (no, we did not get a picture of it. all the dirt, that is)
(This was Sunday morning.)
And for the record, she did get back on. Sitting in the middle. On her bottom.

We also had a house guest on Saturday night.
The kids loved having Ray over. They just love all over him. He really enjoyed the green car. (Really need to find the handle that attaches. I didn't send one of the kids to Ray's house to push him around in it.)Almost like he knew the month of May is right around the corner!

Sunday after Ray left, the kids played in the sprinkler. We took a walk around the neighborhood. Grilled. Anything to stay outside and enjoy those blue skies!

And because I can't seem to limit the number of pictures, I'll make a Smilebox. :)

Enjoy!
