Super fun day!

Our new apartments are approximately one mile from downtown Dayton. Jason often walks to work in the mornings. But since we moved in the apartments in December....the kids and I have pretty much not walked anywhere. However, we have had big plans about all the walking we want to do when it gets warm outside. Well....guess what kind of day today was?! A beautiful one! So we decided to put all our plans to action. We put Daniel on his bike; and Lily and Austin on their scooters and we took off to town!We had so much fun! We stopped off at the church first. And then it was almost lunchtime. So we proceeded from there to walk to our MOST favorite resturant in Dayton, Jacob Myers Deli. (They have THE best wraps and kettle cooked chips EVER....soooo good). Anyway...this is how Austin started out....but that didn't last long. He likes to get down and run with the other kids....until he gets tired. Really his most favorite place to ride is on "daddy's head." Here's a few pics from our walk to the wonderful Jacob Myers. Lily had to stop to pick flowers, of course. We sat out on the porch at Jacob Myers. Grandmaw met us there and piled us in the back of her jeep and drove us across the street to the park. The kids then proceeded to run and slide and jump and swing at the park. Austin never ceases to amaze me with what he'll try... And then....we started our mile walk home! We were a little more worried about quality of the walk home; but to our surprise...we did less carrying of children and toys than we did on the way to town! All in all; it was an awesome day; and the kids had a blast! I believe we will be doing many more walks to town over the spring and summer months! Btw...I wanted to post more pics of the day, but my family is currently waiting for me in the car because we have no high speed internet at our house and I am taking forever to blog tonight. Ok, goodnight!
