Color Run I

Our family headed up to Louisville, Kentucky for the weekend so that Dominic and I could run the 5k Color Run on Sunday.

We spent some of Saturday afternoon at this park near the river.

The kids had a blast.

 

 There was also a spray park. It was nice to cool down.

 When I went to wake up Caitlin, I noticed she was keeping her hands warm. =)

 We had fun exploring and eating at the Cheesecake Factory.

Short Hike

This post is mostly about our hike. But I have a funny picture from church I have to insert.

Caitlin thought she was a pirate again. 

Still haven't figured out why she puts random things on her head and growls.

Okay - On to the hike.

We headed north to Willow Grove at Cordell Hull.

Caitlin fell asleep on the way there so Jon carried her for most of the short hike.

 

The rain had really overflowed the lake. It had obviously gone over the road in several spots.

We had gone to walk on this trail and it ended very shortly in water. 

 

More water shots.

So we took a tour of the campgrounds and let the kids play at the playground.

 I took the coolest shot of Jon on the swings.

Don't I have the cutest kids?!

 

We had fun on our walk, even if it wasn't where we had planned.

We returned home tired and dirty.

Park time

The weather has been so beautiful lately that we've spent most of it outside. 

My poor little house has suffered, but rainy days are coming. It can hold on until then.

We went to the park the other day.

 

Monkey see, monkey do.

It works both ways.

These were taken while Jon was washing the car.

Not sure what has Caitlin so upset.

I love this picture of Dominic. It isn't really posed. He was sitting there messing with a bug and I called his name. The first picture is nice, but then I told him to smile. That part is definitely fake. =)

Sabbath

Yesterday was a full day for us. I was camera happy so I thought I'd share some of the pictures I took.

We started out with church by a choir from Chattanooga.

I had pictured them from the University and was very surprised to see that all of them were my parents age or older. It was a nice choir, but not really my taste. The kids seemed to enjoy it.

Love the limberness of this kid.

After potluck we went out to Cane Creek with a bunch of church members. 

On a walk before we met up with everyone.

 Dominic waiting for us. He was enjoying his bike.

Danger girl. 

Dominic was so excited to play that he forgot to take off his helmet.

 

My girl!

At the swings.

 

 

Some people played with the kids.

Some sat and took pictures of them. =)

The kids had fun and were wore out.

It didn't take them long to get their energy back. 

After supper I was tackled.
