Sheer Summer Fun

It's been an unusual week as we've not had any daycare children with us. So this week it's been special outings and a day home with daddy. The boys love it when daddy stays home because there is usually extra fun involved or a special trip. That was the case for Monday; we took a trip to Oxbow with some friends. We packed a picnic lunch, where we got to see our first squirrel mind you. The boys loved it and wanted to chase it so we could bring it home but the mom said "No, dears wild animals need to stay where they are." Then on our entrance to the park we were surprised by a baby squirrel who had gotten lost and decided their mommy was his too. We found one of the park staff people and he moved it to a tree to get on with it's life out of harms way of vehicles. The boys were so thrilled with it and wanted to play with it and take it home but once again the mom said, "No, dears wild animals need to stay where they are."

On Tuesday, we took a trip to Target (there are cookies for the kids there you know) and the park which is always a hit. In the afternoon some serious pool time. Wednesday, was the same for a trip to the store and then to the park. It's amazing; my boys ask to go "Bye, Bye" or to go "shopping" and what mom wouldn't love that. How lucky GOD has given me that.

Today was a "stay-at-home day" and we simply played and played and played some more. These days are fun but by 2pm the request for "Bye, bye" or "shopping" is enough to make a woman have nightmares about it. What will tomorrow bring? I'm not sure but I'm thinking mommy needs to make it a big thing so we end our vacation week out with a bang. Take a vote and let me know what you would like me to do with the boys and we'll post pictures of the favorite activity.

Well for now, it's a posting without a picture because I can't figure out how to get the pictures off my phone.

I'll write again soon!!

May God walk with His hand upon your shoulder and bless with all that there is to give.
