so about three weeks ago, paul took a day off and we played :). we love it when daddy's home, because it seems more often thank not, he's not. that morning i did my first long run (i posted on fb, for those of you that saw it there)--9.3 miles (go me!), and then in the afternoon we went to the arboretum to enjoy some spring flowers. we had a blast, and paul took a bunch of pictures:
 |
| tons of tulips |
 |
| dandy daffodils |
 |
| pretty pansys (EVERY color imaginable!) |
 |
| this is a new little stream lined with japanese maples, it's not quite in bloom, but still pretty |
 |
| notice how i casually mentioned the run before, i circumnavigated white rock lake, which is right by the arboretum, it was a nice reminder as we walked past that i'm amazing ;) |
we had lots of time for playing on the grass, and wandering/rolling/crawling/dancing/etc... around. i'm pretty sure we all had a blast!
 |
| rayna rolling on the grass |
 |
| afton even sat still long enough for a picture |
 |
| mischevious malachi loves being in pictures! (can you see the reflection in his eyes?) |
 |
| we were playing rapunzel |
 |
i looked out the window and what did i see?
POPCORN popping on the tree! (i don't think this is apricot, but i'm not sure what it is either we didn't take a close look) |
 |
| the kids love playing in the pioneer village, and i loved rayna's smile here |
 |
| magnificant magnolias |
 |
| hundreds of hyacinths |
 |
| oh yeah, we were there too :) |

what a lovely day and great scenery! I am so glad you get to spend time together once in a while!
You are so awesome for sticking to running. Way to go. Those flower pics look all...professional. And as always, love the pics of the kids.
