A day at Papa and Di Di's

This picture makes me want to go back in time and be a little girl again, that time when I was that age and that was MY daddy holding MY hand. I don't think you ever outgrow being "Daddy's little girl" but to see MY child holding MY Daddy's hand....where did all those years go?? I love you Daddy, I know it has been years since I have called you that but no matter how old I am I hope you know that I will always be your little girl!

 Dave was out of town at an archery shoot this weekend so on Saturday the boys and I spent the day with my parents. It was fabulous and so much fun, even though we live in the same town I feel like I hardly really get to spend quality time with them. Most the time it seems we are just passing the boys back and forth and saying "hi" and "bye" in the midst of all that chaos. My parents have been taking the boys everyday after school and watching them until I am done with track every night, its been great and I could not do this if I didn't have them helping me out! However, this Saturday we actually got to spend some time talking, playing, baking and relaxing. We met up early Saturday morning at Rooks Park and my parents pushed the kids in the stroller while I went on a fabulous run all by myself around Bennington Lake. It was 6 miles of beautiful sunny skies, cool temperatures,rolling hills and me and my thoughts. I loved every minute of it. We spent most the day out at my parents house doing some baking for my new nephew (more on that later), playing outside and just enjoying each other's company.

Colt loves my parents house, he likes to go down to the creek and throw rocks in it over and over again. He will stand out there forever doing that until we make him come in. He also loves to throw a ball (or in this case a shoe) for my Dad's dog Jordan. He loves playing fetch with her.

When did he get so big?

Di Di and Jax enjoying the nice weather. Check out Jax's legs....maybe he shouldn't be wearing shorts.:)

My fabulous boys. I love these two so much!!
