A Picnic

On Saturday we had a picnic...

We brought a simple, but delicious spread, complete with lots of cheese and cookies..
Recipe for that Better Cheddar coming soon..

Spread out on cozy blankets,

brought a few favorite toys to entertain ourselves, including grape scented bubbles.

Practiced crawling and felt the grass while Mommy sipped a little wine...

and enjoyed some laughs with a few friends.

Last week I mentioned this tree we found in City Park called the Singing Oak. When I saw it, I knew we had to have a picnic beneath it. So this weekend wemade it happen. We met under the tree to enjoy some snacking and chatting. The light wind made the chimes ring beautifully.  The baby crawled all over the grass, made a few new friends, and we stayed till it got too cold. It was a fabulous Saturday afternoon.  A picnic is.. simple, free, and so fun! I feel a really good Spring comin' on!
