Trips to the River


Vivi and I have gone to river a lot this summer. Maybe four or five times sense May. That kinda doesn't seem like a lot, but it is. Our summers are packed and getting away with the kids is hard to do, plus it is a lot of work. Speaking of the kids, they have been little hellions lately. Mainly just Liam, he can really push my buttons, how the heck do they know exactly what to say to piss you off. Really, it is pretty amazing that they are so intuitive. We went to the river on Sunday, for about five hours with friends (Robert, Heather, Morgan and Nathan). It is was good fun. Plus I got to sit in the water with Darius. He is hilarious in the water, just splashing around with a huge smile on his face. I think he might be a swimmer some day. I need to get boat. That would be mucho fun as well. Vivi wants to get one too, maybe in five or ten years:) At least the kids would be older and really able to enjoy it a bunch. We bbq'ed cheddar dogs and ate watermelon, very traditional river food if I say so myself. I think that I need to take Liam on a camping trip, he would really enjoy it just him and I. Maybe in Sept. and we could go fishing at the same time. Something to think about...

Evening at the Park

I took Liam, Asa and Darius to the park last night. Darius slept the whole time, so I was able to play with Liam and Asa on the swings and slides. Fun. Here are our pics from last night.

We try to go to the park at least once a week, it is nice to get them out of the house and able to run around where there is some stuff to play on. We still don't have much in the way of a lawn at our place. I would love to have the time and money to build them a fun play set, or even to get a giant trampoline, but it is not going to happen for a while. Maybe in a couple of years once Darius has grown up a little and ViviAnne has started working again.

Tomorrow is my anniversary, which I am looking forward too. 7 years and counting. It is nice to think about it. I have loved every moment and look forward to many more years. We are going to head over to Moscow and have dinner at The Red Door. It is a pretty nice place and then we will probably go back home and sit on our front porch and watch the sunset. This will be our first anniversary in our new home.
