Well, actually, today's was more flooded-out. It was bright and sunny, but the field was covered in water. Wonderful.
BUT, we did at least get to go forth with our "Father's Day" plans for K- our church was supposed to be having a meal after church tomorrow followed by the annual board meeting, so we planned a scenic drive and picnic for K for today.
We drove about 20 miles north of where we live, along the Mississippi River road on the other side of the river. We had never driven that side before, and it was beautiful. And since Moses loves the Mississippi River, he enjoyed it, too.
We picnicked in a beautiful gazebo in a forgotten old river town right on the river. And I do mean RIGHT ON THE RIVER.
Since it was our Father's Day celebration, I tried to get some pictures of K with the kids. But ZuZu wasn't so into cooperating today...
Moses was all over the place, so it was hard to catch him in a picture...
But I LOVE that he prefers to swing in the baby swings so that he can be with ZuZu while she swings. What a sweetie!
ZuZu was a little slower, but tried to keep up with her big brother...
She got this far on the ladder, and that is where her bravery ended. Thank goodness!
After the park, we stopped on the way home at Wendy's for frosties. If you haven't done so, GO THIS WEEKEND and buy a frosty-- Wendy's is donating 50 cents from every frosty to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption! Great deal!
And of course, after all of that play and then sweetness, we needed food. Nothing like having two lunches! Now THAT is K's kind of Father's Day celebration!
We got to have a bit of down time before heading to the church tonight for a concert. Everyone came home dead tired. After I got ZuZu down, this is where I found K:
Hopefully that translates into kids that sleep well!
