We Got A Break
I went for a bike ride this morning with a friend. It was a nice ride. This morning we went to go pick up Minnie Shoes for Nicole. She loves them! They are a little big but she didn’t care one bit. We went for a walk in Lake Forest in the woodsy area. It was fun. Although Nicole kept saying “shoes all sandy” and kept on wanting to dump her shoes. Justin loved it. They absolutely loved throwing rocks into the little streams. They also loved picking dandellions and blowing the white stuff everywhere. I picked the flowers (weeds) for them and Justin would say “I want two”. It was cute and just a nice time out with the kids. Then we met grandma/pa at The Hat for lunch. The kids were so excited to see them but they barely ate. They had more fun playing. After grandma/pa offered to take the kiddos for the afternoon. So we drove the kiddos there and luckily they took a nap there-we went the long way so they got a little more sleep. It is still so hard for me to leave the kids, but I knew they would be fine. We came home for a bit. So weird but nice to be home without the kiddos. Then we hooked up the hitch and put the bikes on the car, and went down to Newport. We biked around a bit and biked to dinner. We had dinner at a place called 3thiry3. It was such a beautiful day in Newport and was great to have alone time with Bret. The kiddos were so happy when we picked them up. They had a great time. As the kiddos say “we did it again”. I am so tired, off to bed.
