Sunday Fun day

Sunday Fun day sure sums up our day today.  We started the day at this new wonderful church we found.  They have a great kids program and we even got connected to a "Life Group" for young married couples, which is really nice.  They meet Sunday mornings before service and right now they're discussing a parenting book they're reading.  After church we came home and got an email that the playset I was looking into for Gunner was still available so we headed out to pick it up. 


I took a picture of it in the back of the truck so I could show off the truck hubby got. :)  I forgot to mention Nate bought a truck once we got out here.  It's a high mileage one for now, but he'll be deploying the end of the year anyway, so we'll get something nicer later on.  So we wrangled Grace up so we could up the climber together.  But she was happy just to be outside.


Gunner was ecstatic to try out his new playset. 


Within a few minutes he was up, down, all around, even going down the slide headfirst on his belly. 


Our little dirtball.  Such a little California boy, he hates shoes!  The problem is our backyard is mostly comprised of sand, dirt, and long leaf pine needles.  Not a great combination for kids.  But he doesn't seem to mind too much.  He's getting used to being a dirtball. :) 


*I should note he is roaring at me in the picture, but I thought it was a funny action shot.  :)  Here's a better picture of his filthy feet...


While I was in the backyard I wanted to share a picture of the AMAZING patio Nate is building us.  He is so meticulous and has done a fantastic job!  I hope he doesn't mind me posting a picture of it as a work in progress, but he's done so well so far I thought I would share.


Even Grace loves it already...


Playing outside is always followed by bubble bath time, ALWAYS.  Both kids were having so much fun tonight, I even snapped a few pictures.  Grace learned how to splash and loves it!


And although it looks like she doesn't have hair, when it's wet you can see that it is infact growing, just very slowly. :)


After bubble bathtime we enjoyed a nice dinner before winding down for bed. 



All in all it was a great day!  Nate has a few more days off before he heads back to work (and crazy hours I'm sure).  So hopefully we'll have some more blogworthiness to share.  We miss you all!!
