It is finally nice outside!


We spent the morning "hiking" today. The boys are now 4 1/2 and almost 2. This is not going to be the summer o' hiking. Let me start by saying, it was 60 degrees and sunny today, we all had a breakfast of homemade muffins and were well rested. It was complaints of being tired, hungry, and thirsty from the first step! This picture of sitting on the bench having a snack was literally about 100 feet into the walk (after Jake had carried Zachary because he refused to walk!)

Isn't that pathetic and pitiful?!

Sitting on the grass for a break about 100 feet after the bench snack!

We finally got a little action out of Zachary when we went off the trail-go figure!

Swinging break...

We found a playground and suddenly the boys came to life! Aidan was so proud that he could climb the rock wall all by himself!



Zachary found a ball-his all time favorite! He never let it leave his sight for the rest of the morning!

Ah, yes. It is like when we got the most action out of Alli running OFF the soccer field than on it! If it is not their idea, you might as well head to the park instead. They are so stink'n cute, though!!!

You have a couple of real outdoorsmen on your hands! I love it! Maybe you'll look back at this in a few years and laugh. Here's hoping :)
