Too Many Adventures



I got to have an “Auntie Jen Day” with my 2 handsome nephews and my adorable niece the other day. I had requested that my sister allow me to take them for several hours so that I could take them on an adventure!

All three of the kiddos have gotten so big since I had last seen them, and it was fun to ask them what their biggest dreams were, what they want to be when they grow up, and of course ask them some good “Would You Rather” questions.

We had an adventure to the bank.
We had an adventure to the donut shop.
We had an adventure at the Children’s Museum.
We had an adventure at the Everett Marina.

Sure, some of these were more of errands for me (depositing checks, eating my favorite donuts here while I can, and well being close to the water – all my personal faves.) but that is one of my favorite things to do – create adventures out of ordinary things.

Upon leaving the Marina, little Sam said,  “We’ve had TOO many adventures today, Auntie Jen.”

It made me giggle and remind of me of that one time Summer Batterson told me that “Adventures with Jenilee” are just a way to get other people to go on errands with me. While partly true, I also firmly believe that life is better with other people, ESPECIALLY if they are with cuties like my nephews and niece!

So bring on the CRAZY adventures!
