Resume picnicing

After a brief hiatus for winter, today we resumed picnic season. Yay!!! Our lovely day started out with Wee Read at the library. McKinley and I always have so much fun, though today we definitely missed our friends, Kylie & Lincoln and Robin & Savannah. Both families have just had beautiful baby boys and were unable to join us today.

After Wee Read, we came home to load up some yummy goodness for lunch. I packed a basket of pbj, hummus pita, snack mix, an apple, yogurt and drinks. Perfect! We called Nonna to see if she and her crew wanted to join us, then we were off! McKinley helped me choose where to sit, no surprise that he wanted to be as close to the little train tracks as possible. May 1st isn't coming soon enough for him - that's how much longer we have to wait for the train to reopen. Boo.

We all arrived at the same time, Nonna and the boys having walked over to join us. It was a gorgeous day - GORGEOUS! Luther and Hadley (Mom's new addition) were all about taking in the spring smells, all the fellow dogs walking in the park with their families, and trying to sneak a pretzel or two from McKinley.

After lunch, McKinley (SURPRISE!) requested that we walk the little train tracks. We met a new little friend - a boy just a few months younger - and his family. The little boy loves to walk the tracks just as much as McKinley! Matter of fact, they came to the park just to do that!

We had such a nice afternoon together! When we arrived home, it was time for McKinley's nap and it was so nice out that I opened up all the windows to let the perfect spring air inside.

What a nice day to share with my boy!
