Today's little outing...

We went with my friend Val and her cute baby Annie to campus to watch some "Project Bandaloo" (or something to that effect), where these people do rappelling/dancing on the side of tall buildings. The kids enjoyed it for a few minutes...I know this, because Layla kept pointing at the people insisting, "I see it! I see it! Loot! [which rhymes with 'look'] MAMA!" and Carson would watch and let out some quiet "oohs" and "aahs" before busting out somewhat impatiently, loud enough to get a few head turns and chuckles, "SO, WHEN ARE DEY GONNA FALL?" I probably should've re-explained the whole point of the rappel dancers...and I would have, too, had I understood the "point" a little better myself...

Anyway, it was a pleasant outing. Pleasant enough that Val and I jogged home...and rolled our eyes as Carson called, from his comfy seat in the stroller, to Annie, in her comfy seat in the other stroller, "Way to go, Annie!" Please. Like you kids are doing ANYTHING to expedite the going-home process. But Carson and Layla loooove "baby Annie" (or "nannie," as Layla calls her), and we kidnapped her and Val both for the rest of the morning. I'm glad they didn't put up too much of a fight.

I love that Carso is stroking "Nannie's" face in that pic. So cute. We loved our jog/show of harnessed dancers hanging off the library today. Thanks for a good time.

So Brittney are you going to push Carson and Layla in the stroller during the marathon on Saturday. Now that would be an accomplishment ...because JUST running 26.2 miles is not. JK. Good Luck!
