Melting

Do you know what happens when you take a tall cold glass of iced tea outside on a warm day?? Condensation. If you set that glass on a table, within a few minutes the glass will be sweating and there will be a puddle around the bottom edge. If you let that glass sit for a few hours, there will be water everywhere. Well, that is what is happening where I live. Think about concrete buildings that have been trapping in the cold for several months now. When those concrete buildings and all the concrete inside of them meets some warmer weather....look out!! There is water everywhere and the moisture is all enveloping. So what is there to do, but get out of the melting iced tea glass and go outside and enjoy the warmer weather!

Last night we decided to take a picnic to the park and play. Some friends had invited us to dinner, but when we told them our park idea they asked to come along! The more the merrier! Funny thing is, when we arrived with all of our footballs, soccer balls, baseball bats, etc, and started playing, a park employee came up to our group and said we were not allowed to kick the football or soccer ball in the park. ?????? When we inquired of her she said this park was for resting, not playing. Who knew? We didn't let it stop our fun and Hudson even practiced his punting of the football a few times anyway.

The picnic!

The Dads! Hudson playing football.
Our friends have twin 4 yr. old boys who like to play and wrestle with Hudson. They wore their football jerseys last night to the park so they could play football with Hudson. We love our friend's 2 yr. old daughter. She and Hannah have a fun time together. She is about the same age as our cousins Reese and Ainsley, who we haven't had the privilege of spending time with. So when we see this sweet girl we feel like we can "see" all the stages of their lives too.

Of course Dad always makes it a fun night at the park!
