We had a great long weekend, despite scraped knees, elbows, and faces. Here are some highlights:

*Justin and I went on a date Friday night. The boys had a great time with our friend S. We ate at one of our favorite restaurants and then wandered through Borders looking for cheap treasures. I found a 3-D I-Spy game that we played all weekend. Jacoby and I were really into it. (:

*On Saturday, we went to the park, library, and farmer's market. We also tackled some projects at home. Morgan bit it hard running home during our walk and scraped most of the skin off of his knee. It was nothing a little Laurie Berkner band and a Lightning McQueen band aid couldn't fix.

*We took a drive to Golden Gate Canyon State Park for a hike and picnic. It was a beautiful day in the mountains.

While we were on our hike, a rock grabbed Jacoby's foot as he was running by causing him to fall hard and scrape up his elbow really good.

Momo looking so handsome

The brothers

We had to make some time for this, of course

Love this little boy -- I'm so glad we got this picture before the dreadful incident below occurred

He was being very photogenic while we were out

Alas, just when we thought we'd paid our ouchy dues, Momo took off running down a trail after our picnic, flew off of it, and literally did a handstand-cartwheel sort of thing through the air before biting it hard on his little face. There were many tears but he seems to be healing nicely. Both the knee and face incident happened on Mommy's watch...sigh. ):

We have a busy week ahead: endocrinology appointment, Back-to-School Night, and lots happening at work. This is the last week before Justin starts teaching Mon - Thurs. We're going to miss having him around in the evenings. We hope you all have a safe, band aid - free week! (:
