barefoot in the park

We had a standoff before we left the house this morning. It was me against two determined little boys who wanted to wear their flipflops for a walk in Meadowlark. Cameron started the flipflop madness and of course Jamie joined in. So we made a deal. You can wear them but you can't complain if they start to hurt and mummy will not carry you. Deal. So off we went to Meadowlark with Crocs hiding in the car boot for later.

We had a great time running through the woods, racing each other, chasing off imaginary bears etc. Then Cameron and Jamie started to have sore little feet and we ended up with Cameron and Jamie as bears using their flipflops on their hands....And then just barefeet boys in the park. People kept asking me where their shoes were so I told a couple of the mums the flipflop stories and they laughed knowingly...been there!

Back to the car for Crocs and then we had a picnic. Here is Cameron with a mouth full of grapes!


And Jamie enjoying mummy's yogurt.

Sounds like a lovely day. Abby's wearing flip flops now too, but Will is much more fussy about his shoes and mostly likes sneakers.
