This is How We Have Fun!

The last two weekends Brad has had off so we have been out and about enjoying the good weather!

Memorial Weekend they had a big festival in the park in downtown Roanoke. We went with some friends and Kellen loved being outside. They had tons of things for kids and it was one of the first events that we have been to in Roanoke that there weren't a thousand people smoking. I swear people smoke a lot more out here!

 After going down town we decided to head to our apartment building's pool. It was a perfect day to be at the pool and not a lot of people were there. Kellen loved the pool even though it was his first experience in a cold pool! If he could Kellen would live outside.

 Last weekend we went on a hike with the Young Women in the ward. It was in Blacksburg where Virginia Tech is. It was a gorgeous hike and a great one to break in our new  baby carrier. Because we were outside Kellen loved the hike and seemed to be comfortable in the carrier. It felt good to go hiking again and get outside. Virginia just keeps getting better and impressing us more and more. 

 Kellen even fell asleep the last little bit on the way there and on the way back, I guess the outdoors is just his element!

 Monday was my birthday and we spent the evening having dinner at the park. The day was gorgeous and was a perfect way to end the day. I will try taking more pictures of the scenery; sometimes it just takes my breath away. As I was driving today doing my errands, I couldn't stop smiling because of how beautiful it was outside. Being a girl who grew up in the desert it truly is amazing to live in the middle of a forest! I highly suggest making the trip out east at some point in your life to experience it. Just make sure you come before the humidity sets in!
