Sunny Weekend!!

What pure bliss it was.....Reese was wanting to go and do something fun, so I said that I would take them to the park. I had already decided that morning that I was not going to do any chores and just spend good time with the kids. The morning started off great with bike riding and previewing the garage sale up the street....the stuff was over priced for a GS if you ask me Some of the neighbors were going to the Zoo and Reese was asking why we "NEVER" get to go and do "FUN" things. I tried my best to explain that 1) it all cost $$ and 2) We have a baby and she requires naps. for about 6 years someone has been napping at our house between 10-4 Yes that is nice, but it does have it's disadvantages too.
Well the kids had such a fun time playing outside that we forgot to give Norah a nap. Because the kids wanted to go to the park I asked the roomie if she would listen in for Norah while I took the kids to the park.....it was a GO :) I haven't had that much fun with the kids in a long time!! Usually when I take the kids I am holding a baby so I am unable to "play" with them. I try my best, but it is a little bit difficult. This time I ran around, took the kids flying on the cable swing, and played troll under the bridge. We topped it off with a Bedtime Stories when we got home. I just love days like this.
Because 3 of the kids had no naps and Norah only had one I was also able to put them to bed really early. I was able to start my painting project. Fun times!! Hope you enjoy the pictures....and that you enjoyed this lovely sunny day!
