a run in the park.


it was g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s here on tuesday.  {read:  it was over sixty degrees &  not raining.  with sunbreaks.}  parker & i met sam downtown to go for a family run.  and we wore short sleeves.  it was awesome.


my camera likes to go on these runs too.  it especially likes to stop & take pictures of all the flowers on the grounds that are in bloom.  it was kinda gorgeous that day.


sam tolerates the picture taking.  barely.



parker & sam entertained themselves by watching cars & trucks drive by while i did my old-lady-flower-picture taking.  seriously... when did i turn into my parents?  {hi mom & dad!  you're not old!  just sayin'...}



can you blame me?  they were everywhere.  it was color overload.


parker didn't mind.



and he got to work on his walkin' skills.


i told sam we needed to do this more often.  he reminded me the only reason we don't is because it's been raining the last six months straight.  i had forgotten that detail.

but for reals?  on a sunny day there is nowhere more gorgeous than the pacific northwest.  and that's a fact.  it's been proven with science & stuff.  probably.

also proven?  your votes helped us move up to lucky #11!  thanks friends.
