Today my friend Kelly and I took Anders and Aubrey to the Fullerton Arboretum. The kids had a great time and we basically just followed them around as they explored. We met another mom with a little boy named Max. They all had fun sitting on the bleachers playing "drum". 


The picture of Anders touching the pumpkin was me trying to get him to not get too rough with the plants and to only touch with one finger! Otherwise leaves and flowers would be pulled apart.

The canopy of vines was a  favorite and the kids enjoyed running back and forth through it.  

Afterwards we went to the Corner Bakery for lunch and then Anders and I continued on to Pinkberry for some frozen yogurt and blueberries. Yum!

What great pictures! I think the one of Anders with the pumpkin would be a great Halloween card.

I was a little bummed to hear you were moving, but totally understand the joy in it for you.

Tell Chris that you'd like you had less "cares" if he came through the door with a bouquet!

Oops, that was supposed to be "look like you had less cares..." Not funny when it has to be read repeatedly to get the joke! =)

He actually LOVES the new do and thinks it looks sassy.

Gorgeous pics, Gretchen! The last one in the vines is magical ... like in a fairy tale.
