When Jonny saw daddy mowing the lawn, he ran to the garage to get his own lawnmower. What a good team! Afterwards, we went for a family walk around the block just as we did most days this summer. We joked that this particular day, being Labor Day, would be the day I go into labor. I brought my camera this time to help us remember years from now these special walks we took together. Like most kids, Emily and Jon thrive on routine, so we would go the same way and stop at the same places along the way EVERY time. :)
Although Emily learned to ride her two wheeler bike this summer, she sometimes chose to ride her tricycle on our walks so that she could put her favorite blankie and stuffed doggy in the basket.
"I'm the king of the mountain" is what Jonny would always say when he would climb on the dirt piles and rocks at this house being built.
Then we would stop at the McPheeter's home so that the kids could run over their bridge several times, climb on the bench, and drive the little tractors in their front yard.
Next stop: visit the kitty cat, whose owner must be losing it because she walks around the neighborhood calling for her kitty in a super loud voice. Remember her, Kathy?

Of course Jonny had to select his favorite stick, large or small, to take home every time.
Emily would always ask me if we could wear our matching pink shirts on our walk.

Yes, I DO remember that crazy lady--wasn't she walking around in a sports bra one day looking for that dang cat?? :)
