Park Time

The blossoms are starting to bloom. The air is fresh and we still need jackets, but we await the sun.

The warmth is around the corner.

 

Blue skies FINALLY

 

At 5AM the air quality was completely hazardous... school was a distance learning day!! I'm getting the hang of it. Daddy was so very kind and spent hours fixing up the kiddos bikes. They were on them all day today!! Thanks Daddy!!! By 11AM the air had cleared up and we COULD BREATHE!!!!

The entire weekend (past 2 months) have been extremely SMOKEY and to have a day where we can see the sky and not cough up a lung because of the smoke is a miracle. We'll take it!!

Up at 6AM... 2 hours later

The light was so beautiful this morning. We had an interesting 7 minutes total at the park. Everything was broken and then Eli had to "make".

I read that in a book recently and it cracked me up. A 5 year old in the book wouldn't say she needed to use the bathroom, she had to, in a whispered voice, "make."

HYPER!!!!!! 

Sunday Park Time

We only got a little bit of time out there because of the thunder and lightning!

42 Years. Joe's Birthday Hike

Jody was feeling up to a birthday hike, so we headed out early.... 6:30AM over to Huffaker Park. There is a great .5 mile walk around the mountain with some pretty nice views.

Papa introduced us to it! This was the 2nd time we've gone with him.

 

It was hilarious. All the kids wanted a picture of these lizards that were chasing each other... thank you mini-indoraptors.

I was able to get the above pictures and all the kids started cheering and were super excited.

It's the small things in life I tell ya.

Such a lovely morning. Everyone looks more tired than they were. We walked it twice to get the full mile.

Feeding the Ducks

We grabbed some bread and headed over to visit our beautiful Yaya Sofia.

She lives near a nice little lake and it was good to get some fresh air.

Fortunately the ducks weren't overly aggressive! It was a pleasant outing!!

Park Time

With the weather so nice outside, we headed to the park.

Where within 2 minutes Ella needed to use the bathroom.

Ella was a trooper and we continued on with playing.

Lots of arm muscles used!!
