All the Perez Hilton this and Jamie Lynn that is tiring. Who knew I had it in me to be so prolifically snide.
Well, I did, I guess.
But now, let's take a deep breath and unwind.
J., the kids and I went for a hike this morning. We walked along the shores of Lake Washington, over a charming, if extremely muddy little island, to the Arboretum near the UW.
That's the stadium there, in case you couldn't tell. Which I'm sure you could. Because All Adither readers are the most astute on the internet. (And I mean that in a totally unsnarky and sincere way.)
It was good to recharge.
I dream of mud. Mud indicates that somewhere, it has rained. Looks like a lovely day.

Looks lovely. Perhaps I will take the girls for a walk this afternoon.

Wow, that is really beautiful with the stadium in the background! I've never been there yet, but I will have to go!

Gorgeous pictures. I'm so glad you and your family got out this weekend. It's truly lovely there. And by the way....I wouldn't necessarily call it snide or even snarky. Entertaining is what I'd call it, if anyone were asking, that is.

I could use a few pics like that today.
Calming, tranquil, meditative. Yes, all adjectives contrary to my life today.

I LOVE lily pad flowers. They're so neat, how they manage to be both beautiful and tough-looking at the same time.

Love the photos, especially the first and last. Oh, and I did know that was the stadium. Does that get me a gold star or two?

That's like a totally new word? I'm adding you to Urban dictionary...so there.
I had a whole post a thon about snarky. Some people thought it meant, as in, ew gross, when your kid is sick and gets all snarky???

Looks like vacation material for me. What the heck is the temperature there?

I too would give up snarkery for a beautiful day and happy children.
