Heaven...

We just spent a week in Pinetop and one of my FAVORITE spots in the world is at the river near my parents cabin! I seriously think it is so peaceful! My kids love to go there and throw rocks, collect rocks and flowers, have a picnic, cross the log bridge...oh, and the nice cool breeze does wonders for people that have been trapped in our house all summer long due to the extreme heat :)

Benson came up with us for the weekend then needed to go back home to work! I stayed with the kids and my mom joined us...but I didn't take any pictures...but we painted rocks and pine cones, went on walks and bike rides, played on the playground, went swimming, played with water balloons, played catch and wiffle ball, did sidewalk chalk, went to the movies (G-Force), went to McDonald's TWICE, and we went to Denny's for kids eat free night (FUNNY STORY...my kids thought it was SO cool that we had to pay for our dinner AFTER we ate it AND we didn't have to throw away our own trash we just got to leave it at the table...I guess we don't take them to sit down restaurants very much...too funny!), watched lots of movies and the kids got to stay up late every night!

We had a blast and it was so nice to spend so much time outside!
