Long awaited picnic

June 20, 2011
We had a long awaited picnic tonight.

And not just because it's the end of June and we have yet to eat dinner outside.

Tonight we went window shopping for a new car. Seeing as how it's been almost two years since we bought the Audi and I have yet to learn how to drive it, Jeff has decided he wants his truck back. He says it smells like a girl. So we drug two hungry, squirmy kids to look and test drive cars. Thank goodness dealerships have become more "kid friendly" and have playrooms with toys and movies to keep them entertained while the dads talk shop with the salesmen. But even a movie, balloon, snacks, and a few toys could keep Cole happy for long. He was done and wanted to go home. And by that time, Pearl was starving. I think both kids figured we had forgotten to feed them. So Pearl came up with a "great idea, Mom" to have a pizza picnic at the park.

It was a good idea.
