Picnic Prep

This afternoon we are meeting a fellow adoptive family whom we have not seen in far too long for a hike and a picnic at a favorite park.  We've been preparing our outdoor feast and are looking forward to devouring it later today.

Here's Ella cooking our homemade soft wrap bread.  I'm not entirely sure why she had to wear her Halloween costume for this task, but the wraps turned out great.

Does anyone else save the trays from the prepacked veggie medleys you can buy at the grocery store?  I do because they make great storage for eating on the go.  Craig and I have this tray for the picnic:

Ella's looks like this:

We'll be sharing the wraps and a batch of chocolate chip oat cookies.

Emilia has her own little tray with a sandwich, blueberries and grapes as well as dairy-free cookies and Rex is probably just going to eat potato chips and drink lots of water.  He's easy and predictable to feed, but hard to feed healthfully.

P.S. Here are the kids on our hike and the girls playing with their friend A.

Beautiful fall afternoon with friends.  Always a pleasure.
