The Season's First Picnic!
While inside at work all day, while it was busy being the first REAL warm day of Spring outside, i decided I'd love to do a picnic with the family after work. I called Ron at home to pass the idea by him and he said he had the very same idea! I called Dad ("Pop-Pop") to include him and HE said HE had the very same idea!!! WARM WEATHER syncs us all up! And why shouldn't it? - S'been a long time comin'. Sam's favorite place is OUTDOORS (specifically, he'll tell you: "My favorite place in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD is the PARK!"), and what better place to be. Ron put together some homemade potato salad, sliced up a mini watermelon and i brought home some dogs and buns. We packed it all up, gathered the kids, and headed to Pop-Pop's, where he then followed us up to Harris Hill, a favorite place when it's nice out and we're lookin for something to do, especially with Sam. Ron fired up the coals and Sam ran between us and the playground; that was exactly my plan (bwa-ha-ha). The dogs rocked, the watermelon was super yummy and the homemade potato salad totally hit the spot. Dad had a great time. WE ALL DID! The plan, however, was for Sam to ride some rides, but by the time we went over there, they had closed the ride area down. Instead, he picked out a blue train from their little gifty shop and he was happy as a clam. At one point i looked at each of my family members and realized how truly happy and fortunate i am. It's just plain nice to be surrounded by such love. Oh yeah!
