I feel like our lives have been out of control busy lately. I find myself looking forward to the weekend and wishing the weeks away. This working full time thing is a lot harder than I remember! Robb and I have both been pretty stressed lately with just keeping our household afloat. We decided to take an afternoon to forget that our house was a disaster and just take some time as a family. We went to Mahoney State Park for the afternoon. We had a great time! We started out with mini golf and then went to the paddle boats. Our kids love doing the paddle boats. They like to get really close to the shore so that they can collect the shells in the shallow water. Since our family is too big for one boat and I wasn't sure about taking Emerson on the boat, Robb and I took turns on the paddle boat.
We watched the huge fish that were in the pond also. The kids thought it was pretty cool that people kept catching fish.
I love this picture. Emerson is a spitting image of Caleb although he doesn't like me to say that.
Robb and the kids managed to get the paddle boat stuck at one point because they were so close to the shore.
We ate supper there and then got some icecream. Here is Miss Emerson who is supposedly lactose intolerant enjoying icecream. She dove right in and then we couldn't get her to stop eating it. I guess we will either be sorry later or I can start adding dairy back into my diet. I guess this is the ultimate test.
It was nice to take the day to just spend together without the distraction of anything else. We ended the day with a walk/bike on the trails and playing at the park. Everyone was exhausted but happy.
