enjoying the process » loving the journey, not just the destination

These photos are from January, but I decided to give them a little touch of summer to ring in the new season.   🙂

He’s taking about 4 steps at a time… one of my favorite stages!!

I know that’s what everybody says right before they hand their dad a tie, but in his case… it’s really true. He truly is The. Best. Dad. Ever.  I have never seen another man love his children as much as my husband LOVES ours.  He could be dead tired, but if one of our children asked him to play or jump on the trampoline or go on a bike ride- he’d jump at the chance! He always puts us first- always. I sure do like him a lot.

We took a little trip to Pasadena after church today to Numero Uno pizza (which we never found). Instead, we ended up at a nice little Mexican place- great food, great location, not at all crowded. Then we headed to Dots for some yummy cupcakes & to the park to eat said cupcakes. Then we got a $40 parking ticket. FYI- parking meters in Pasadena DO require change- even on a Sunday afternoon! 

On a completely unrelated note, Kennedy is sitting beside me playing pbskids on James’ computer. This girl LOVES to sing so periodically I’ll hear sweet sing-songy words from her sweet little mouth like “Jesus…lamb of God”  or “apple of my island..”  and just now I heard this: “Jesus had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb…”  Have I mentioned how much I like her?
