Sunday Fun!

Sunday morning I decided we needed some one on one time with the kids. CJ and I did what girls do best, and went to the mall. ;) Kyle decided to take Brian and his skate board to the skate park.


The very first store we saw was a bridal store. We stood outside the windows for about 20 minutes while CJ told me about every single detail that she liked and didn't like on every dress we could see from the window. After that, CJ wanted to go inside the store. I told her we could if she promised not to touch anything, I'm proud of her, her little hands stayed in folder right in front of her. She was very good. She's four and I think she might already be picking out her prom dress.

On our way out the mall, I decided to call and order a pizza for lunch. While I was on the phone, I showed CJ how to roll like a log down the grassy hill! She loved it. In her own words, she said, "I went super, duper, uper, snoofer fast!"


These are all pictures that Kyle took in the morning when it was just Kyle and Brian at the park. After they came home Brian wouldn't stop talking about it. He talked about it so much that even CJ wanted to go after dinner. P.S. Before you say it, I know, he needs new grip tape. It's on the list.

I love how happy he looks in this picture!


Good news! There's no board in this picture!


What was I thinking? Allowing Brian to take his board to a skate park?! Is anyone else a little worried about the sure to follow ER trip?


But that smile is incredible!


What a little dare devil, going down backwards!


King of the hill!


Practicing going down without the board.


Chasing the board that got away.


Look at him go!


He is just too cool!


This was towards the end of our evening, CJ was just totally self entertained on this ramp. She would climb up with her board and roll down, and just keep rolling until she either hit something or until the board finally would come to a complete stop.


Ready?


These are some cool kids! But that's just this Mother's perspective.


Kyle, helping Brian stay on his feet.


There she goes again! By the time we left their hands, legs, faces, ok any exposed skin was filthy black. There was some serious scrubbing in the shower when we got home!


Kyle is helping CJ down the ramp for the first time. Sorry these pictures are not really in order.


Doing what he does best.


Do you notice the one very important difference between the morning pictures from when it was just Brian and Kyle and the evening pictures from when I went with them? More safety measures. When Kyle took him, he only brought a helmet. When CJ and I went, we also brought along all the knee pads and elbow pads!
