Marc decided yesterday was the best day ever and I would have to agree. It was a great Mother’s Day gift, I got to spend the whole day with my boys!
We started the day off bright and early. I had told Marc he needed to get up early so we could be ready for the day. Guess who was up and dressed in our room at 6 am? Matt and I ran a race he did a 10k and I did a 5k. Matt won the whole thing, and I met my goal, so we both felt good about it.
Then we drove up a canyon super close to our house and hiked up to a spring. The boys did awesome, except John who desperately wanted out of the carrier so he could walk. Marc and Luke had the promise of ice cream if they walked the whole way and that kept them very motivated! It was so nice to be away from everything and just spend time together. The boys loved it so much and it was super easy. I need to remember it doesn’t take much to make them happy, usually it’s just my time focused on them.
Matt decided it would be awesome to take a picture on this log, so he transported us all out there, set the timer on the camera and booked it. He only had 10 seconds so he had to be pretty fast. It only took two tries and I was very glad to get those boys off the log!
Here are some other pictures from this week. The big story is Luke fell off the swing at the park and got a pretty good scrape on his chin. He also split his lip and got some cuts in his mouth too. I don’t know how he managed to get so much gravel and dirt in his mouth when he fell off, but it was not a pretty sight. I am glad kids are tough and get better quick, if I would have done what he did I would have check out for at least a week!
