A good mom today...





Grudgingly, anyway. But that still counts, right? Nathan has been begging to go to the Dinosaur Park lately. I always seem to have really good reasons why we can't. So, I made a plan for first thing this morning. For some reason you can't spring the park on me. I don't know why, but it is not something I enjoy doing. Maybe it's because I have 4 children who run off in 4 different directions and I can't keep track of any of them. Plus it's only like 150 degrees outside. Geez, where's the fun for me! But, being the "good" mother that I am, I sacrifice for my children (blah blah blah).

They had a good time and I got to put my zoom lens to good use and get shots from far away. I guess that was my fun. The picture of Samantha is up in the top of the tree house. They splashed, swung, ran, slid, and played in the sand. Hip Hip Hooray!

What do you mean? You are always a good mom. I love the pictures and there is something about the colors, I love them.

what a bunch of cuties you have!

Now that I'm looking at your blog I think you may have a different layout than me. I think mine is stretch or something??

You are always a good mom! But I hate the park for all the reasons you listed. I actually enjoy going to empty parks, but somehow my kids don't think it's as much fun when we're the only ones there :P

Those pictures are really good. I think you and Heather should host and enrichment night to show the rest of us how take pictures.
