Memorial weekend

We have been having a great stretch of weather here. I have been able to take a few days off from work here and there and really enjoying it! This past weekend, the three of us went to a playground - Lizzie has been waiting very patiently to use the very tall slides until she has both parents with her (one for the top of the slide and one to catch her at the bottom). She is getting very confident in climbing up, on and over the equipment. Here she is getting a big push on the swing (an "under dog") from Ryan.
Lizzie and I put Griff in the entry way to go visit Ryan in the garden. When we got back, he had made his way into the house and onto the couch. Ryan was able to grab the camera and take a picture before putting him outside again (how did he know to put his head on the pillows??). It was nice of him to keep his feet off the cushions.

Yesterday, Lizzie and I went on a quick trip south to visit with Mimi and Timber and have a tea party with Ally, Cadence and their mom Shannon. We had a great visit. Here is Mimi showing Lizzie some baby geese on our walk.

It was a perfect time for a swim after the tea party!

When we got home, Lizzie joined Ryan in the hammock. We had a long day - Ryan was up to start working around 4:30 and Lizzie and I were up at 5:30 - (she slept all the way to and from Litchfield) - we were ready for a swing in the hammock.
