A day at the park

Recently we found a park that is close to our house. Normally we don't go because we have a playset and trampoline in our back yard, but it was so heavenly yesterday we decided to go. Oh how I loved it. I'm an outdoorsy type girl. I'd rather go camping then stay in a hotel. I'd rather sit around a campfire cooking pizza in a pie iron and smores then go to some fancy restaurant.

The park is big. We played football, soccer, had races {which my husband smoked me!}
The kids played with some other children at the park while my husband and I took a walk on the path. My mother in law was visiting so we actually were able to walk just the two of us. It's amazing in such a simple act I am reminded how loved I am and how lucky I am to be his wife. And oh, how he makes me laugh!!

He hates having his pictures taken. But hey, I got something. 


Douglas and Olivia swinging. This girl, actually both my girls, LOVE to swing.

We had such a wonderful time at the park. I was surprised and thankful for how long we stayed there. The weather was PERFECT and we had so much fun together, filled with lots of giggles!!!

We are not part of his story and he is not part of ours

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
