A Trip Down Memory Lane

I was lucky enough to spend some time up in FoCo yesterday with family (and friends I call family ♥). It was a very emotional trip, capped off with a total blast from the past...

...J and D playing ball.














The catch? The pole currently holding the 'net' used to be the tetherball pole when MT and I went to elementary school here. Yep, you guessed it :)! We took our kiddos to play at Beattie Elementary's park. Too cool...for school ;). I peaked inside and it looks soooo much the same :).

Here P gets a ride from J and D from Aunt M, who is busy waving at her son J playing with his daddy :).














Run D, RUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!


J shows P a new way to swing! P is wearing her darling new outfit from Poppa and Ansy, who had taken her out for a yummy lunch earlier.



















D testing the new way of swinging too, and grasping tightly to his new car which he got for being brave during his flu shot.



















Hippity-hop scotch :).


The kids wanted a ride in the cool car Dr. T has in his garage. MT determined it had likely not been driven since we were in high school, so they settled for a pretend one. Watch out, driver-P is on the loose ;).














And, when I got back home a little after 9 PM, I found the following on our front doorstep...














We'd been Boo-ed at some point during the day :). This has never happened to us before, so we were super excited :). Thank you to the ghost who so stealthily left such fun gifts and treats for us. We had fun passing it along today!!...BOOOOOOO!
