~Day 2• 247: outside!

Saturday September 5:

This morning when I got up I found the girls on the floor in the kitchen going through the stash of art supplies we picked up yesterday. They were so excited to go through them all and see what we have. I love that they love to create. They were pretty busy layer in making stuff too.

This morning was actually very nice outside. I think the extreme heat is gone and we can enjoy outside time now. Nick left early to go golfing. But before he left he and Austin went out for a run and a bike ride. Nick ran, Ashton rode his bike.

A little later I got up and wanted to go for a bike ride. I asked the kids if they wanted to go. All three of them did! It was a lot of fun. I went total of 9+ miles. And the kids went about seven with me! That is a lot for little legs. Ashton only went about six, but he also went 3 miles with Nick this morning. I hope to keep this trend going, because it is so nice to be outside and to be together. 

When I got home,  I got changed and  went over and help my friend Theresa with some family history stuff. I was at her house four hours! We found a lot of things and she got a lot of work done. I'm very excited for her! 

When I got home,  Nick and I were talking about where Alissa and John went last night for dinner. It sounded good, so we decided to go. Nick told Alissa and she and John decided to go with us again tonight. The food was very good snd there was a lot of it! JJ was very cute. Nick tried feeding him a lemon, but he was not so interests . He kept giving me kisses and loves and it was very sweet! After we had dinner, we went over to the local gelato shop.  We sat outside and it was a nice evening all around. 

When we got home, it was time to get the kids ready for bed. For some reason we all got pretty crazy, and ended up having some sort of weird pillow fight. It was fun and I got my camera out to try to take some pictures just for the fun of it. But most of them were blurry because I was trying to get out of the way being hit with the pillow. I sure love these monkeys. They make me smile all the time. But now I'm glad they're in bed and house is quiet. Tomorrow is another day.
