Loverly.

Last Night

Last night I rode my bike with the boys to the library. Bryan met us there from work. The Library is one of our favorite places. Oscar loves the dinosaurs. Angus loves the Dragon. Bryan loves checking out new tunes. I love the fines, well at least I seem to be pretty proficient at getting them. Tonight they had music there, and ice-cream. We had a great time together eating ice-cream on mini-chairs at a mini-table in the kids section. We checked out some books, dinos, and shows. Then we rode our bikes home together in the little bit of warm sun we had yesterday. Bryan's dreads stuck out all funny underneath his helmet. He said my ears stuck out funny under mine, and he was probably right.

Today

What a great day to be outside in Boise! We hung out with the animals at the zoo this morning. After nap-time we went for a run on the Greenbelt. Oscar loves running along side the Chariot Carrier with Reece and me until he just can't run anymore. So that is what he did. Then he settled in next to Angus, who loves to sing/jabber at the top of his lungs as we go. They ate fruit snacks and pretzels together while I push them the rest of the way to one of our favorite parks.

This particular park has a great big sand "box," so we brought some trusty trucks and tractors along to play. Oscar wore shorts and played barefoot in the sand. Angus wore sandals and tried to eat the sand, first off of a stick and then by the handful. He succeeded a couple of times, and he seemed surprisingly happy about it. I left my running shoes on, my hairy legs were in plain sight, and I tried to not let the scent of my sweaty self make victims of the other park goers.

It really was a loverly day.
