Picnic

We had to take Grandma to the airport yesterday, and after the way the kids acted when we took David there on Wednesday, I wanted to be sure I had a distracting activity up my sleeve. I had thought about the zoo, but by the time we got our errands done, the kids were getting pretty tired, and I didn't want to have to carry anyone. All Grace asked to be able to do was go to a park to play (I hope she remains this easy to please!), but we were all getting hungry, so we decided to have a picnic. Thanks to my trusty GPS, I was able to find a park in the area we already were, so off we went!


Always the princess

I couldn't keep them distracted with food for too long, so they didn't eat much, but they sure had fun playing.

We eventually had to go to the bathroom - something I never look forward to in places like this, but with two kids and an hour or so drive home, it's inevitable... Tristan decided that there was a structural problem with the bathroom since there were no solid walls.

He said "Mommy, dis idn't built very well" as he stuck his hand through the bars. But could you imagine the unpleasantness there would be if there were walls??? 110+ heat daily during the summer with no airflow... GAG!
