Outing in the Park

We took advantage of this lovely day and were fortunate to be able to meet up with a friend and her daughter (and her bear).  Sometimes last minute plans are the best.  Here is Tiny waving hello in her adorable sun hat (thanks Debbie) and lounging on the blanket. Keith stopped by on his way home from work and took a quick turn on the swing. We even saw a cute little woodpecker on our way out.

Big Day Out

  Keith took Tiny to the office this morning for "Take your Kids to work day".  She was her usual smiling self and the youngest attendee by several years.  She hung out with dad for the kick off breakfast then I went and picked her up.  We came home for nap time then headed out to meet a friend of mine at the botanic gardens.  We managed to get there just about the time the rain rolled back in,  but had a great time anyway.  I really enjoy the rain these days,  we don't get it very often here.
