An Old-fashioned Summer

Today was our first "real" day of summer. We did some hunting and gathering for our dinner, we frolicked about in the wild and then we visited our favorite watering hole. Seriously, we did all this- just California style. We went to a local farm and picked blueberries and I used them to make blueberry pancakes for dinner. The we went to a park with some friends and the kids played in the woods (okay, low brush, but woods sounds more exciting) for a couple of hours. And then we headed home for bath time because they were COVERED in dirt. Overall, we had a good day. Not a great day, but good nonetheless. The kids are having trouble trusting me that we're going to have fun with whatever I say we're going to do for the day. If I left it up to them we be playing Wii and watching Sharkboy and Lavagirl all day long!
