Picnic
Yesterday was an absolutely gorgeous day--sunny and warm but not hot (finally!). Noah had asked a while back to eat lunch outside and I finally remembered on a good day and at lunch time. So, I pulled out the well-used CU blanket and made the kids pb&j and cut up some apples and we had a nice lunch on the lawn. It was so warm that I was lulled into a snooze while the kids finished up (they are really slow eaters, especially when distracted) and Noah re-raked the pile of leaves he had un-raked while looking for a missing Hot Wheel car (if I had known Noah meant to play with them in the leaves, I would have tried to dissuade him from such a potentially hazardous idea). He was rather forlorn since not only could he not find said car, but he had a big job to do. I, on the other hand, very much enjoyed the rest. I did take pity on him eventually though and gave him a little help. Anyway, here are a few shots:

cutie-pies!
I remember that blanket! Or maybe Julie has the same one. I think I have a picture somewhere of someone wearing it as a toga. We had a picnic the other day too. It was fun except the food was all too close to Caleb and he kept trying to grab things he isn't supposed to eat.
I love Noah's huge smiles! He's such a ham for the camera. I think we have the same paper plates that you do. I know, odd and useless information.
so much fun! i love picnics. =) oh, the cu blanket - so many fun memories - and perfect for picnics and anything else that i would never in a million years use any other blanket for ... i wonder where mine is?
I am glad that you all enjoyed the outdoors! You will have to make the "lunch picnic" a tradition.
Lilly is getting so so so big. It happens to fast.
I want to go on a picnic! We've been having a lot of sunny days out here lately, which means it's cold, but atleast the rain hasn't set in yet!! I need to get out and enjoy it before it disappears for a good couple of months!! :-)
