an afternoon at the river.

I thought a warm Spring visit to the river & park might have to wait until this weekend, but yesterday was just too sunny & happy. I couldn't wait. I had to make it my first official visit of the season. Oh, was it perfect! I packed a lunch for me & the girls. Tia & her youngest kidlet joined us for the fun too!

The shoes came off.

And the silliness began.

You know those pictures where some random person in the background tries to sabotage the photo? Tia & I tried to recreate some of our own.

This has to be one of the most randomly bizarre photos of me. And my teeth. And yet I post it here for all to see. It was taken from the underside of a park bench.

We watched a group of Japanese tourists, armed with their point-n-shoots, excitedly taking pictures of squirrels. I ♥ random stuff like that!

Ew. (No boogars were harmed in the making of this photo.) Yay for friends & sun & silly camera antics!
