About Our Day

It was a really good day. The treehouses at the Botanical Gardens were really cute and the kids had a great time playing on and in them. They ran and ran and ran and ran! I know everyone says this but it is so true, where do they get that energy? If I could bottle it by the ounce I'd be a really rich woman! Gabrielle did pretty good climbing down from the high places. She doesn't have a problems going up or being up high. It's the coming down she has problems with. Roger said she is afraid of heights. I asked her if she was scared of being up high and she said "No. I am scared of falling down." Blew me away! That is exactly my fear and has been all my life. I would climb things and be fine till time to come down. Never told her that though. And she is only 4, well nearly 5. But anyway, she did good today. Tyler slid down the slide and landed on his rearend, stood up and said "my butt hurts". Then he ran around and did it again. He and Gabbie were the main ones running. Austin more stayed back with April and I. He kept hoping I would give him my camera, which I did on occasion. In one of the pictures below the boys have binoculars. They were bird watching. And the green one was the Wizard of Oz theme. You will see of Gabrielle trying to steal the ruby slippers. And there were my 3 little birds in a nest. All in we left there with two worn out adults and three very dirty little children. Don't know about the kids but I will sleep well tonight and I may not be able to walk tomorrow!
