Remember Batik and Red?  My family talked me into keeping it.  So sweet of them!  I do adore it, and just couldn’t bear to let it go.  Anyway, on a beautiful spring day a couple weeks ago, I decided the time had come for its first adventure.  We didn’t go far, and it didn’t carry any fancy foods.  But it was a picnic, and therefore was fun.  We packed up, and off to the backyard we went.  (Odd assortment of containers there on top, but the mason jars are in there somewhere!)

The menu:  Annie’s mac and cheese, clementines, bread, and juice or tea.

Under a blooming dogwood tree, no less.

The girls sat in their hammocks to eat – not sure how we managed that without disaster…

After a bit more exploring and swinging and whatnot, it was time to go back inside.  Beautiful day.  🙂
