It's Sprr--burrr--rring! (Part 2)

I mentioned yesterday that we're REALLY ready for summer. Well, what I forgot to include is the breakfast picnic.

It all started with summer dresses and sun hats and the fact that there was a bare patch of grass outside....and the sun was shining. And, yes, it was 40 degrees out with the wind blowing. Before I was even out of my jammies, my oldest daughter had packed a box of an assortment of edibles (I removed the soda and marshmallows--who pronounces "marshmallows" marshMALLows? Shouldn't it be "marshMELLows?") and was headed out the door. They invited me but I politely declined by assuring them that I would be watching from INSIDE the house--recording it all, of course...

First we have the preparation

And now we have the feast (I actually went outdoors for this one)

See, I really am a Romantic Mom with die-hard children determined to actually exemplify their mother's (non-)attempts to live out the "romantic life!" See their zealousness? See their sheer and utter commitment to my "romantic" cause? Now I truly know that I am NOT unenthusiastic and lame. I must truly be an inspiration!!

Here's Kitty

He says, "I've had enough...thank you!"
