Fun Monday!

After a super productive Sunday of church, brunch, football, a 3 mile run, and lots of playing outside, we had a chill Monday.  We slept in a bit and headed to the Cookie Mall for lunch.  (The Galleria is the Cookie Mall to Lincoln and Beau!)  We had a yummy lunch at Auntie Ann's with pretzel dogs and apple slices, and the boys needed Valentine decorated cookies for dessert.  Yummy!  They used the cookie gift cards that Santa left in their stockings, and they were so proud!  We played outside for a bit, and the boys were looking so cute.  Linc had to show off his cookie card of course.   
Beau took a moment to smile sweetly.  Those baby blues will melt any heart! 
Silly Lincoln couldn't be still when asked for a picture.  Luckily, he was caught in a little twirl.   
They went off to investigate together . . . the things they come up with are crazy! 
We took a break for a rest and a little cupcake baking in the afternoon, but another visit outside was necessary because it's 70 degrees in January!!!  An acorn hunt was our plan for the afternoon, and rain boots were required???   
Off we go with Beau leading the way!  Sometimes we need to take turns being the line leader! 
The acorn hunt got pretty serious!  The boys were super excited to find the perfect acorns and add them to their collections.  Mommy got a few yellow flowers (weeds!) during the adventure. 
After a super yummy dinner, we had the mini cupcakes we had baked earlier in the day.  Lincoln ate three in about three minutes!  Beau had two cupcakes but was a little preoccupied.  Apparently mini cupcakes are really great!!! 
What a fun Monday!  We had so much fun spending lots of time outside, and we had a few delicious treats.  There is usually a bit of chatter after the boys go to bed, but they were both asleep really quickly.  They were just exhausted from such a fun day!
