It finally felt like summer here in the East Bay this weekend, so we decided to get out and enjoy the nice weather with an impromptu family picnic over in Tilden Park in Berkeley. We set a blanket down on the field and ate the sandwiches and fruit we brought, and just soaked up the sun for a couple hours….
I created a makeshift canopy to shade Mio from the sun, with a blanket and some help from the wind… 😉
Hopefully the warm weather will continue for a few more weeks so we can get some more outings in… I’m not ready to say goodbye to summer yet!

Nice! Love her outfit. We need to get out too, picnic sounds like a fantastic way to soak up the sun before fall is here

You guys should totally go on a picnic! I wish I could take Mio to Nottaway Park… my family used to go there on outings sometimes when I was little! 🙂

You guys look great; I’m glad you had a nice outing together :). Your dress is very becoming on you, Mio just radiates exuberant, innocent cuteness and Dan looks like a happy dadda.. 😉

Aww, thank you Hyo! 🙂 What a sweet comment! We definitely had a fun time at the picnic; we’ve really missed the warm weather here! (We’d been wearing winter coats for the past month or so….) Maybe we can go out and relax in nature together when you come visit in the fall! 😀
