What did we do this Saturday? We were outside. A lot. For those of you reading from below the Mason-Dixon line, you may not be thinking that’s a big deal, but it is! What a day! It was a “Disney” Day here in New Jersey on Saturday. Sun out, birds chirping, everything about to bloom and burst in full color. I thought Aurora (Sleeping Beauty for those of you without girls under the age of 7) was going to bust out from behind a tree and start singing with woodland creatures in the background. That didn’t happen, but we did see tadpoles and squirrels.
This is the highlight reel starring the kiddos, our good friends and mother nature! Our adventure included our dear friends and their sweet little boys in central NJ, land of rolling hills, towering trees and gorgeous old estates. We had a fantastic day as we caught up and had their photo session at Cross Estate Gardens over smoothies and bagels, (see Hudson’s face) and I’m not sure how their family can get any more adorable.
Yes, this family belongs in a frame!
Bloom!
Mr. “All boy,” reclining as if he’s just returned from a tough game of cricket. He was really throwing rocks all day.
Post-smoothie “smoldering” face of a filthy, tired toddler. Work it.
Teagan can fly!
Smoothie time! Tea found me some hydrangea: “You’re favorite flower, Mommy.” <3
No, really. She can fly.
Somehow, in photos, Gwenyth always manages to look way older than she is! Scary? You bet!
We’re oh so close to leaves and shade!
