So many of us are stressed, running around the hamster wheel, and not taking time for friends and family. Some of us have time but no money to do too much these days either. Here's a solution to take us back to a simpler time - Let's bring back the Picnic!
I think sometime in the next week, I'm going to pack up a picnic basket, grab the kids, a blanket to put on the ground, and surprise my family with a picnic. There's so many parks available, and it's going to be warm this week, so why not? What's more important than getting fresh air and exercise with my kids? The dishes? Laundry? Vacuuming? I don't think so.
What to pack...maybe some turkey and cheese sandwiches, grapes, some lemonade, and maybe some crackers. I wonder if I can pick up a Frisbee before then? If not, there's always lots to do with a soccer ball, football or basketball. It'll be a nice change of pace for us. Oh, and I better not forget the camera.
