Tonight we went over to my parent's house to play outside and get some dinner while Mike was at a Barnstormers game with his kids from the after school program. Owen enjoys exploring and running all around my parent's yard. It's a nice change from our neighborhood yard.
A week ago I was pushing Owen on his bike through the alley and we decided to stop and collect some pine cones and put them in the bucket in the back of his bike. He enjoys carrying things in his bucket. Yesterday we took a walk through the alley again and gathered more pine cones. It is really cute to watch him get so excited over pine cones. Well, tonight, while we were at my parents, Owen spotted a ton of beautiful pine cones and was beside himself. These pine cones were much better than the smashed, soggy ones from the alley! In fact, I kept some so we could use them to make ornaments at Christmas time. It was adorable watching him get so excited over the fact that he found more pine cones at my parent's house. Then, he would hide them in the dirt in my dad's wheelbarrow and crack himself up.
Oh, to be two again and enjoy life's simple pleasures!
