Outdoor Playdate

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: friends

We had some GORGEOUS weather on Monday. I loved it. The boys and I hung outside for most of the day. We went over to a friends house in the afternoon. Carsyn loved putting his feet in the grass and picking up pine straw. It was so cute. Dustyn and his friend Camden {which is just 2 weeks younger then Dustyn} had a blast riding on his power wheels. All together it was a great day. Then Tuesday it rained, so I am glad we were able to spend some time outside. It is suppose to be nice the rest of the week woohoo.

I used Pamela Toppings new Enchanted action on the one above and below.

This worm was so cool looking. He was glowing. So neat. {Click on the photo to make it bigger}

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.
