Good and Perfect Gift

This day was such a gift from God. We went to a nearby park and the weather was BEAUTIFUL! We fed ducks, had a picnic lunch, played on the playground and stayed a really long time. I layed out a blanket for me and Max near the playground to keep an eye on Jaker. I read my Parenting magazine (so I was enojying myself too!) and Max played and ate snacks. So nice...
CHUNKING it!
He wanted them to get close so badly.

A stick!


He loves the swing -- just giggled the whole time! Check out that hair. :)

and those teeth!

he loves this climbing rock

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17

He gives us good gifts ALL the time. Check out this blog entry on thankfulness:

I just copied the Kelley Klan blog-link to a friend who emailed me this morning so I could share pictues of my sweet grandsons. Your blog is awesome, Sweetie ... I hadn't checked in a while. And the b/w family portrait is perfect for the intro . . . and the music! I love it!! You're the best.
Wasn't Monday fun?! I love you, MOM
