With only a small snag (Chris was held over in a meeting) our picnic went off just has planned. It actually went better then I thought it would. Lily was very helpful putting out the blanket on the floor. I think that we ended up with three in total. :-) Charlotte was good about not picking up the blankets and running off with them. She loves to do this. Well, I don't know if it is that or that fact that it makes Lily crazy!
Chris stopped off for us at the store and picked up the last few things that we needed and then he was home! Lily could not wait to show him what we had done! Everyone sat together very nicely. This is what we were worried about the most. Charlotte just isn't used to something like this. So we just went with the follow and she did great! She didn't like the chicken salad much, but for some reason LOVED the chocolate chip cookies Chris picked up for dessert. Hmmm go figure ;-)
Lily was just in the moment. Chris had picked up pumpernickel bread as a little treat. Lily was SURE it was chocolate bread! She wasn't too disappointed when she took a bite. She really picks up our ques on things. She will ask like a big girl if everyone is having a good time, or if everyone likes the 'new brown bread'.
It was just a great way to end a pretty crazy week and has really set us up to have another fun weekend. Thankfully we are on a roll with these! I really hope that they keep coming!

hugs,leslie
This is such a cute idea...I might have to steal it!
Sounds like a fun night! We do it about once a month, usually with pizza and a little table (Joshua in the high chair). And a blanket of course. :) It is such a treat for them because they aren't allowed to eat/drink out of the kitchen/dining area otherwise. I really believe these are the memories they will have one day!
