Oh man...we love this weather!
One of our favorite things to do is have dinner outside.
In the summer time this is an every day activity.
It is so nice to just hose off the deck instead of cleaning the kitchen up.
So this evening was just so beautiful, we had to have dinner outside.
Spagetti...mmmm...not really considered a 'picnic' type food.
But it was just perfect!
Actually, one of the foods that we can get this boy to eat!
But really, I think he was loving the mess more.
We went to the park this afternoon.
And Brent told me about a little encounter with the little kids.
Elsie and Porter were playing on the small gym, and a little girl came up and pushed Elsie out of the way.
Well, Elsie looses her balance easy, so she fell...of course.
Next, Brent saw Porter go up to the little girl and knock her over...and he was going at her for more when Brent finally got to them.
Now maybe it is cause he is a rotten and mean little boy. (Not really!)
But we truly believe that we got this big burly boy for one main reason.
He is Elsie's protector.
Recently he has shown such a sweet tenderness towards Elsie.
She still gets a little nervous when he gets near her...but she is getting used to him being nice too.
He's a good boy.

* I am Thankful for the great weather...and the things we got done in the yard today.
* I am Thankful for movie night. It is always fun to stay up late with the kids...if you don't have to have an early morning!!!
* I am Thankful, and a little sad, that I totally spaced signing up for Robie Creek. I would love to run it again...I'm just not ready this year...but I am so happy to be running again...So maybe next year!

Yep, Porter is Elsie's protector. And as he gets older he'll learn to be nice to her all of the time. :o)
what a great protector he will be. i love that there is a piece of spaghetti in his nose, too funny!
GOOD JOB PORTER! That is to cute.
That is WONDERFUL you can eat outside! We are missing any seating on the deck, but it is my hope we will find something good at a garage sale this summer! Whatever you have out there looks really cute, with the black chairs.
Porter is a good brother to protect his sister! That is so cute! I'm sure as he gets older he will understand when to "fight back" to protect her and when not too. It's just really sweet that he is taking care of her and watching out for her at such a young age!
