Exploring Nearby.

Even though it was overcast today, we packed some food (Turkey Sandwiches on buttermilk bread and Capri suns )and went for a quick errand and a picnic. You don't have to go far away to find neat things that don't cost anything, Its great. We found ourselves near Rover park in Roseville. There was barely anyone around which was nice because Spencer didn't know if he liked going to this place to picnic. We had swings, slide, bridge etc.. to ourselves and a cute little table with wooden benches. We had lunch then noticed the little path into was seemed like woods behind the park. We explored a little. The boys were nervous so we sent them back for about two minutes to be on their swings while us girls went a little further. We found a lot of purple flowers, a stream, and a broken house as Celia calls it. I've never seen Spencer so excited to see me when we came back in view after only a couple mins. They swung and played around and Joseph enjoyed sleeving his Magic the Gathering Cards and telling me all about the monsters in that game. Pretty ironic as I couldn't get him to go on a small hike in the city hehe.

After that we went to Auburn and got some drinks drove around seeing neat houses and scenery. Celia said it was beautiful and loved the pink flowers and circles which she called the curvy roads. We ended up at the American River Overlook. It was beautiful and we need to go back there when we have time and can hike around. It so close by and felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, I love it.:)

Celia looked like a little vampire ready to pounce ;)

Emmy was swinging so high, Spencer was looking at her and laughing.

I would have more pictures, but my batteries ran out right after I took these few at the park!

Fun Times at Home

My folks celebrated their 57th Wedding anniversary. We went to crawdads for an evening by the river at sunset. It was a great time with Bria...
