sledding, fishing, sliding, & cowgirl boots

on the weekends, we like to go here. emma has coined it the mountain park, and i'm sure you can figure out why.

i thought sliding down the hills in boxes might be fun, but it didn't quite work the way we thought.

maybe some snow & a sled would help. emma wishes for snow all the time. and i'm thinking with our 70 degree days, we should just forget the snow and be thankful for our spring-like weather in january. so so weird.

bro enjoyed wandering about.

and miss emma loves it outside too. her pigtails are a favorite thing of mine.

brother & sister...fun times.

we brought emma's princess fishing pole.

we brought snacks too.

i love what you find in your pantry after christmas.

emma practiced her casting skills.

and successfully did it. all. by. herself.

if you have little ones, you know how important the whole "all by myself" thing truly is.

she did have an amazing teacher by her side :)

and was so proud of her newest accomplishment.

she even dressed herself that day. don't you love the purple tulle, peace sign leggings, and cowgirl boots.

if i call them cowboy boots, she will correct me every time.

what is that....girlie cowgirl? or maybe fancy meets country?

we were done with the fishing and with the ducks...

so we made our way towards the park.

the park is always a win. i love you carson.

and miss emma...i love you too.
