Chillin' in the breeze

Blow. Blow.  Wipe. Wipe.

Yes, I actually dusted off my big girl camera this past week and snapped a few photos of the dumplings enjoying themselves at our favorite-y favorite park by the river.  Our move a few months ago makes it less convenient to venture there.  Add to that the big cul-de-sac and neighborhood kids, and we haven't spent a whole lotta time there this spring.  Well, I hope to change that these next few weeks.  I certainly can't predict how well re-entry to the U.S. will go this summer when we all return home from China with Havi. So I want to make sure the dumplings enjoy some days at the park while I'm completely cohoerent and functioning.

So last week, we did just that....enjoyed a beautiful day at the park.

Madeline enjoyed blowing her face dry as well as her hands after using the potty. And Caleb decided to photo bomb the shot.  That stinker!

Look at those furrowed, grouchy eyebrows.

Then she thought she'd pinch them for good measure.

Seriously, I love that park.  I love the oak trees and the gorgeous view of the river. No, I didn't snap any down by the river because I took these in the middle of the day.  But ya better believe we're gonna do our best to catch some sunsets down there this summer.

Well, this weekend we actually sneaked away as a familia to attend the wedding of the daughter of dear friends of ours.  I brought my big girl camera with me and snapped a bunch of shots during our trip to the beach and around the hotel, but I didn't bring it to the actual wedding.  I did, however, bring my iPhone, for which I am glad.  You'll have to wait until I get those photos uploaded and posted to hear about where the wedding was held.  It was pretty stinkin' cool if you ask me.  That's why I'm keeping mum until I actually share the photos.  And if you're my sister and you're reading this, zip your lips too! he he.
