happy place

So we left town Friday afternoon

for Emma's soccer tourney

(the girls and I...Scott had to stay home for work.)

We got back home

Sunday night.

Parker was great while we were gone.

Adored by her soccer fans.

;)

She was happy and content.

But when we got home and set her down,

it was apparent,

she was back

in her happy place!

She smiled

and giggled

and crawled zoomed around.

Scott wasn't home,

he was at the shop working on deer blinds

for the upcoming season.

I was busy separating laundry

when Parker spotted the stairs.

I called to her,

"Paaarker..."

I  waved a blue soccer sock

to lure her.

Then the front door opened.

And her daddy was home.

She looked his way and smiled big.

She distinctly said

"Da!"

And then she crawled
 to her favorite guy

as fast as her little arms and legs could manage!

And at that moment

it was obvious ,

he was in his happy place too.

Cute pics Charlee took at the hotel:

Dear Charlee, I'm sorry I was so busy getting ready that I could barely appreciate these pictures when you were trying to show them to me.

THEY ARE ADORABLE!
