shopping IS fun



Gone are the days of car carts for us. Those things drive me nuts! My kids would constantly get in and out of it; Even the kind with the TV didn't entertain. But these little beauties are wonderful. Makes them feel all grown up to push a cart and pick groceries off the shelf. The things that make kids feel grown up:-) The other day, Cali put my slippers on and then insisted I give her my cell phone so she could "be like mommy". Uhg! LOL

Ahhh!




It has been soooo long since I have posted anything, that it literally took me 15 minutes to even remember how to log on to our blog!!!!! Wow!


The above picture was taken at "the library park", as my kids call it. We walked down to the jogging trail down by the river (that is the murky brown that makes such a lovely back drop for this cute picture of my sweeties) and the kids threw rocks in the river. They could have done it all day long. I remember throwing rocks in the lake when I was a kid. It was fun to see how far we could throw the rock. It was neat to watch the rock plop into the water and then watch the ripples flow out. I remember trying to skip rocks. I was never really good at it. Such simple entertainment! Next time we go to the river, or the lake, I will have to remember to teach my kids about skipping rocks. :-)
