Weekend Getaway

We had a little weekend getaway at Tracy's in-laws this past weekend. Ryan had some college friends staying for the weekend and exiled Tracy and the kids to Bob and Sandy's house. Tracy wanted someone to stay with her because Bob and Sandy were out of town and that house is just too big to be in all alone. I figured the boys would have a big time swimming so we took advantage of their hospitality and had a lovely time. They spent way more time in the hot tub (it was sort of like a baby pool for them)than in the big pool. It is so pretty there that I could sit out on the patio all day. It's also very private so when I had to yell at them for fighting--no one heard me!





I had to take the opportunity of the beautiful landscaping to take some photos. They weren't much up for serious posing, but the lighting was too good to pass up. By the way, the big scab on Parker's eyebrow is from a major wipeout on his bike. I didn't see it happen but some guys who did told my dad that "Man, that kid is tough. He jumped right back on his bike and didn't even cry." He cried a tiny bit when he got home but I think it was because of my gasp of horror when I saw him. Then he couldn't get a bandaid on fast enough so he could go back out and play. Way to rub some dirt on it and get back out there Par!
