Afternoon at the park...
What a wonderful day we had today, i decided to take my little honey to McDonalds for lunch, we had a grilled cheese happy meal (Well i had the chicken fajita meal). It sure hit the spot, after our food settled we were off to the park...
We played for 2 hours....Makenna had a bawl. Of course she screamed bloddy murder as we were leaving but that was to be expected.
We are off to the city early tomorrow morning, we were planning on going tonight but my Dh and I ended up working in the yard tidying up.
Makenna fell asleep at the table during supper around 7.30pm....she was a tired little girl. I think we will be going to the park everyday...LOL

Here are the horses......They are beautiful !!!

Kenny Chesney
Summertime
The Road and the Radio
Summertime is finally here
That old ball park man is back in gear
Out on 49, man I can see the lights
School's out the nights roll in
Man, just like a long lost friend
You ain't seen in a while
You can't help but smile.
~
And it's two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love in an old Ford
Cheap shades, a tattoo, new doo, bottle rollin on the floorboard
Her favorite song on the radio
Sing along because it's one we know
It's a smile
It's a kiss
It's a sip of wine
It's summertime
Sweet summertime.
~
Temperature says '93
Down at the deposit and guarantee
But that swimming hole
It's nice and cold
BikINI bottoms underneath
But the boys heart still skip a beat
When them girls shimmy offThem old cut-offs
~
And it's two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love in an old Ford
Cheap shades, a tattoo, new doo, bottle rollin on the floorboard
Her favorite song on the radio
Sing along because it's one we know
It's a smile
It's a kiss
It's a sip of wine
It's summertime
Sweet summertime.
~
The more things change
The more they stay the same
Don't matter how old you are
When you know what I'm talking 'boutYeah baby, when you got.
~
Two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love in an old Ford
Cheap shades, a tattoo, new doo, bottle rollin on the floorboard
Her favorite song on the radio
Sing along because it's one we know
It's a smile
It's a kiss
It's a sip of wine
It's summertime
Sweet summertime....

Far Away
by Nickelback
This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left '
Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you
And I've loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all I'd give for us Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you
And I've loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go
Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
So far away (So far away)
Been far away for far too long
So far away (So far away)
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed I need to hear you say
That I love you
And I've loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you any more
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing, 'cause i'm not leaving you any more
Believe it
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and never let me go
