Sunday Picnic...


The weather has really warmed up again and the kids have been asking to take a picnic on some huge swath of grass somewhere under the shining sun. Today, after church, we packed a lunch and headed over to Stanford. When Will was doing his MBA we spent many a Sunday afternoon walking around Stanford. The campus is so beautiful! I absolutely love walking there, seeing the buildings, the church, the oval and the arches. The kids like to pretend they are going on different adventures in the trees and arches and playing different "don't step on the crack" games on the giant sidewalk stones.

We took pictures by the big bronze numbers in the sidewalks around Memorial Church. I think the numbers are for the year of each graduating class but I am not sure. We just stood by the tiles that marked our ages.

Do today's pictures seem a little unearthly to you? We all look like we are glowing. I thought the sun was just too bright...turns out, there was a finger print over our lens...makes for interesting pictures.

Why, you're just a little spring chicken, aren't you?! :) Nice.
I like wondering what it would have been like to give birth when I was 13. I think Junior High would have been pretty tough with a newborn. But, the tricky part would have been getting my parents to let me marry a 26 yr old. !

How fun, I still haven't been to campus, except for the soccer fields. I'm glad you had such a fun Sunday!
