Look At The Beautiful Nature!

There were 2 things that I made a top priority in the hecticness that is my life this week.

1. Take the kids to a park that they love - Sahuaro Ranch Park.
2. Date with DH.

The date is tomorrow and I can't wait - it's been a few weeks!
The park - we went this evening. And the kids had a lot of fun! It's a little bit of a drive from us, but so worth it! We pulled up and piled out of the van. I grabbed the stroller and Livvy stretches her arms out and says, "Look at the beautiful Nature!" I didn't have the heart to point out that we were still in the parking lot and not actually in nature. :)
The kids followed the roosters and everytime one crowed, Livvy got excited and skipped around. We fed the rabbits and even got close enough to pet one. I was secretly proud of my little spazes. I saw other kids chasing the rabbits to try to touch them and ended up scaring them away. My tykes were quiet and bent down and so tender. The rabbits weren't scared and would eat our bread and let the kids touch them.

Livvy danced everywhere. Lizzy discussed the things that had changed since last time we were there. Jake walked around picking up anything that looked interesting. And Eli read every sign aloud to us. I just smiled and enjoyed it all. It was nice to not have to worry about keeping my kids in line - they were free to be free. :)
