finally getting outside a bit...

these warm days have made for post-school, post-nap walks quite a fun time. and we swing at the end on our neighbor's swingset. in the pics, ali took to holding zac's hand in the double stroller. thank you warm weather for coming sooner than later.






ali and daddy went on an early morning starbucks run and 'somebody', still in their jammas, talked the staff into giving them a small cup of whipped cream and chocolate sauce... for breakfast!



great grandpa turned 85 and someone gave him trick candles... but ali tries to help a little.






taking a walk on a sunny day in the country... and finding puddles to jump in and animals to watch with cuz brook.










while daddy watches his buckeyes play... ali curls in a little ball to sleep and bubba hams it up for the camera.



we get ready for bed by making the loop around the house! that... and wrestling with our little brother!





and a pic with aunt behteetee!
