A pond picnic

Today was a beautiful spring day and we took full advantage of it. I packed a picnic lunch and we met Tim at the school during his lunch break. Lately, Elijah has taken a particular likeing to the ducks at the pond- what boy wouldn't? Though I got a little afraid of them as they were inches from my feet (lame I know).

It was gorgeous out and we enjoyed our yummy sandwhiches while gazing do-eyed at eachother. There is so much to be thankful for, and days like this help me to remember that. I am so thankful that we have a daddy who loves to spend time with us, who can take time out of his day to play and explore and laugh with us. I'm thankful that he works at a place that has a beautiful pond just steps from his desk. I'm thankful that we got out of the house today- it was so worth it.

This time of year just brings out smiles, and I am eating up every minute of the sunshine and cool breezes.

Wow, that pond is really nice! I had no idea that was near Simpson College. Good to see you took advantage of the nice spring day!

Something kind of funny is that we used to have that exact same stroller that Elijah has. :)
