Happy President's Day!

I love that today is a holiday and I love that Travis has the day off and I love that we could spend the whole day doing fun things! Justin finished a week of his new job chart. His chosen reward was a trip to his favorite park: Rood Bridge Park. This park is fabulous and the boys had a grand time on the playground. Then we ran along the stream and went hiking down the trails for a while. We always see lots of wildlife and it was fun to just listen to all the chirping birds.




My favorite part is when we crossed the "old" stone bridge and chased each other up a beautiful grassy hill.



It was a gorgeous spring day! I love feeling the warmth of the SUN! We had to lure them away with promises of a trip to Costco to get them to the car.



On the way to the car, Tyler started gathering pinecones. I told him they were called pinecones. He said, "Get more pineapples!" Again I told him they were called pinecones. He said, "Need more pineapple cones!"

It was a fun day!

I intended to do fun things with the fam' yesterday, but I was literally gone all day running errands, preparing a meal for a ward family, exercising, etc. I was so sad the day slipped by us without fanfare. I got a lot done, but only in the superficial, non-family sort of way. I need to be more like Kayelynn! At least Jer got to bond with the kids.
