simple pleasures

Last weekend we took the kids to some tennis courts, followed by a picnic by a pond and playing on a playground. The weather was spectacular, and we wanted to soak up as much of it as possible. I love that these events classified as high entertainment for our children. I know that these days, while they are young and so easy to please, are passing all too swiftly.Maya got scared while feeding the very eager ducks and geese. They kept coming closer and closer, and she couldn't figure out that she needed to throw the bread further away if she wanted to fix this problem. :)

We could learn a lot from them.

That was a nice day. Simple, relaxing, and enjoyable for all. No stress, no need to be overly concerned about where the kids are and what they're doing. And close enough to home that you can get home quick if people start getting tired and breaking down. That's some good family time.

That is just the greatest! Sometimes we just need to remember that the best things in life aren't things...it's family that counts! Glad you guys could have a fun time together!!!
