best day. EVER.

Randa and I took the kids out to the White House today - the Sean and Kimara White house. We had the best time. Jumping on a trampoline. Exploring barns. Riding quads. Roasting hotdogs and marshmallows. Climbing through bushes. Scaling piles of firewood. Dodging bees. And best of all - Cuddling cute little baby chicks. So much fun! Thanks again Kimara - best. day. ever.

just like when I was a kid

Ever come across something from your childhood and get so excited to introduce it to your own kids? Or find an old favorite movie and have a no-holds-barred movie-viewing-event? And do you ever then wonder why it was so beloved, or realize that it's totally NOT a children's movie at all? Ya, it happens to me all the time (especially because we are movie collectors).

But not today! Yesterday at Walmart I found the old Disney movie, "Flight of the Navigator". I was a little nervous, because while I remember loving it, I couldn't actually remember the plot. Best. Movie. Ever. Josh loved it. It was every bit as enjoyable as I (barely) remembered it. Thank you Disney for this gem.

So, go share something old with a kid today - or just reminisce with someone who remembers too. Even if it's just the memory of an old rotary phone. Find a picture online. Tell them about how long some of the phone cords used to be before cordless. Something like that - they'll love it. You'll love it.
