Out on a Starbucks date with my eldest.

Bagel Picnic.

Bagels and blueberry cream cheese.

On a walk with Four.

Picking dandelions.

Playing that Verity is the baby and Gethey is the mommy putting her down for a nap in her "crib."

                                                          This boy loves dogs like crazy.

Telling me that the sun is jumping into her mouth.

Puzzles at Grandma's. Helmets are the new it accessory.

8th Anniversary in Cell Phone Pics

Since we couldn't get a babysitter this year, we decided to celebrate our anniversary yesterday as a family in little ways all day long. 

We went out to breakfast at IHOP. The kids ate it out of business.

Then we went shopping for Verity's school supplies. She wanted to bring her doll in shopping with her, holding her on her hip, "Just like you do with Bosco, Mommy." She has wanted this Princess backpack since she saw it several months ago, and has been waiting patiently to do her school shopping to get it. She loves Belle so much, even though she has never seen "Beauty and the Beast."

My lovely anniversary flowers. I am obsessed with hydrangeas.

We we ended the day with a long walk down to the park to pick blackberries. 

Verity:

"Daddy, will you please protect me from the prickles?"

Best Anniversary Yet.
