Play Group Picnic!

This was a crazy busy weekend! We hadn't seen our Playgroup friends in a while so we all decided on a picnic at an El Dorado Hills park for a playdate.

The Pudoff family, as is always the case, was the first there and so we marked off a few picnic tables and Jeff and Lexi went to play and explore. The play structure was really nice and the view...well, let's just say that the gated community must have Million Dollar homes because the view was breathtaking. Folsom Lake, the hills, just beautiful.

Joe Zavada and the Burns family was next to arrive. Funny to see how the kids interact with each other when it is not the whole group. Lexi and Natasha spent quite a bit of time running around, collecting pine nuts, just playing. It was so cool.

They also stopped to pet and play with a golden retreiver puppy who was just so cute. Reminded me so much of Chopin when he was a puppy!

The kids also chased and played with a neighborhood cat...they were pretty busy! I think Lexi really liked this playdate because she got a real kick out of the "picnic" aspect of the outing.

After all that playing, Lexi went home and took a really nice long nap. That gave me time to prepare dinner since Grandma Pudoff and Uncle Sam and Aunt Chelsey were coming over for dinner!
