Fabulous Weather

This week has been amazingly wonderful, with temps in the 70s. Pretty unbelievable for the first week of November. I just wish it would last for the next 4 months. I guess I live in the wrong state. Anyway, Kevin took the kids, and their bikes, to the Price Nature Center. The older kids rode their bikes on the trails while Kevin watched the younger girls play on the playground. They had a great time.

Lunch at the Park

The week that my husband works night is always really challenging. He sleeps during the day and I feel like we should be out of the house so he can get the best sleep possible. I like staying home so finding things to do away from home is not my favorite thing to do. One day we met some friends at a McDonalds playland, and she provided some lunch (so nice). One day we went to the pond, which I previously blogged about. Tuesday is our Library day so we just went to a park afterwards. I remembered to grab some food before we left so we wouldn't be hungry and we all had a great time. We went to this park when we first moved here, 2 1/2 years ago, so my kids were a lot smaller. It was fun to watch them play. The extra nice thing about this park is that it had a grassy area with a path around it so I could walk around with the stroller while the kids were playing. I should do this every day!

I have a picture of these three from the first time we went to the park and I'm sure it looked a lot like this, with smaller kids. I wish I could have retrieved it from the external hard drive so that I could have posted it, but oh well. It was fun to see them doing the same things they used to do.

Playin' at a park.

Back when the weather was warm... well, it's warm again but we did go through a cold snap (not as cold as some places because at least we didn't get snow, although it got close)... I took the kids to a park. I figured they were tired of playing inside and the yard really doesn't have much to offer. They had a good time and so it was a hit. It's right next to the Saginaw River so we took a walk to look at the river as well. Ben is really wanting to go fishing - memories from the island and our neighbor, Will. It was a nice afternoon.

I would have put captions in for all the pictures but they are pretty self explanitory and I'm sure you can be just as clever (or more so) than I so just enjoy! We had a nice time.
