On Saturday morning we made one of our regular trips to Target for a Green Tea Latte and some odds & ends. I'd recently downloaded the Cartwheel app for my phone and was so distracted by trying to figure out how to use it (old person alert!) that I forgot about the actual paper coupon in my bag for $10 off which expired THAT day. I remembered just as I was about to pull into my neighborhood. For $10 I was absolutely turning the car around and dragging my toddler back into Target. For sure.
After his nap I wanted to get us both outside, but I didn't feel like driving far. I just wanted to be outside, somewhere other than our yard. It shouldn't be so difficult to find a spot of trees, etc. to romp around in. I finally settled on a nearby golf community with access to Nature Conservancy land.
I believe this is fake water but still picturesque from the right angle. |
My guy is going through what I hope is a phase in which he only wants to go back, not forward. So I carried him as far as I felt like and then set him down. He took off back towards the car and we had a nice little walk (until he decided he wanted to explore off the side of the trail that was choked with poison ivy and I was forced to carry him away).
And off he goes! |
Admire the poison ivy, but please do not touch! |
Linking up with Karen at Pumpkin Sunrise.

I'm glad to hear that you got out at least a little, and sorry to hear that your son has a cold and is a little under the weather. Hope he gets better soon and you get out lots more.
I'll be in your area tomorrow night, hopefully. Our paths prolly won't cross, but I'll be thinking of you.
beautiful beautiful scenery! I hate when I forget important stuff. I am in the habit though of checking for on line in store coupons while waiting in line! Everywhere there is always something. Target doesn't do many though...
