Family Saturday

My two boys and Rachel were good sports this morning and accompanied me to the library so that Zane could make a free gingerbread house.  It was so packed.  The whole community was invited and I had overheard during toddler time that they had 400 ready to go.  Well, the word was out and lots of people showed up. 

Jeff helped Zane make his house while I held Rachel.  He was very timid and didn't want to do anything-I think because there were so many people-but by the end, he was helping a little.  I think the highlight of the time was him getting to see Miss Yvonne.  :)  She used to teach his toddler time and she was very glad to see him too!  

All Done!

This afternoon, I got the pump and aired up the tires of my bike and rode around the neighborhood for a few minutes.  After Zane got up, he and Daddy went outside and stayed out all afternoon.  Rachel and I joined them for a little while while Jeff sorted through the barn.  We decided to cook han-ga-burs (Zane's pronunciation) outside!  It was so fun!  I realized that we can have campouts and be outdoors and have a very happy 2 1/2 year old and not have to drive three hours to do it.  I love traveling, but I forget how hard it is with kids.  So, I think our new house, yard, and neighborhood will be a wonderful playground for our family for a few years.  And think of how much we will save in state park fees!  :)
