Mother's Day: Part 1

5.10.2012

For Mother's Day this year, Eric decided it would be fun to do a little picnic up the canyon or something.  Which I love to do, and it sounded like a good plan.  Well, when it really came down to getting everything together, feeding the babe, and all that, it got way to late for heading up the canyon.  Plus it was quite cool.  So we just headed up to my parent's house, and picniced in their back yard.
Hallie eating one of her favorite things.  Yogurt!
We just spread out a blanket, and ate some delicious turkey BLT's on bagels.  One of my favorites!
Little Paige

Hallie has decided that making funny faces is far more exciting than normal smiles.


After she finished eating Hallie headed over to play in the sandbox


Then after playing outside until it was almost dark, we headed inside to make a Mother's Day present for Grandma.  (They were in Jackson Hole, and weren't home)


I painted a white base coat, then put dots made out of painter's tape on it, then let Hallie loose.

While we were waiting for it to dry, we headed down and played the Wii, until past bedtime.

And Paige just slept

Playing the Wii got very intese.  Hallie kept trying to make the princess jump, and she found it much more effective if she jumped too.


It ended up being a perfect evening together as a family.  What more could I ask for?
