Road Trip

Marianne, Jasmine, Cole and I took a mini-road trip last week. We packed up the car and headed for my parent's place for a few days. (Thank you Love!....and Jeremy for giving up Marianne and Jazzy for a few days.) We had a blast! You know there's really not all that much going on when we go see my folks but we get to slow down and enjoy the little things in life. It's so refreshing.

Things like:

Watching the kiddos play in the sandbox.

Watching Cole and Pa "speed" down the driveway on the lawnmower.

Taking time to walk out in the pasture to "visit" the horses. Cole LOVES the horses (and cows).


Letting Cole sit on his horses' back while he gazes across the field finding the cows and makes Mooo sounds. (His Daddy is very uneasy about me letting him do this.)

Taking the kiddos on a wagon ride up and down the driveway.

Watching Pa read to Cole. (One of the sweetest things to me.)

Taking pictures of my most favorite subject while he is enjoying pretending to ride his horse on the saddle that was his Mommy's and will one day be his first saddle.

Ahh, the little things in life. I just love 'em.
