We had a beautiful warm weather last Saturday so we decided to go to Tomlinson Run, one of West Virginia's State Park. We invited my father-in-law and he went with us. I did not have time to cook food to bring so we bought a bucket of chicken and some side dishes (coleslaw, mashed potatoes and gravy, and biscuits) to eat for our picnic.
Ms. Burrito planned to catch some cray fish so she took an empty coffee container and my husband accompanied her to the creek. Unfortunately, they came back empty handed but they saw a garden snake swimming in the water.
Mr. Burrito on the other hand got busy meeting other kids and played with them. Ms. Burrito is like me when I was a kid (even now). I was very skeptical in meeting other people. She love to stay and spend time with us which is the complete opposite of the little man.
I am so glad that Dad went with us, he got to exercise a little by walking around the park. I love to see how my husband really bond with my father-in-law. I think when you get to that age, you always want too spend time with your family and have someone to talk to. We are planning to take him again sometime this May after my daughter's communion and hubby's graduation day.
After we spend a couple of hours at the park, we decided to visit my brother-in-law in Chester. I'll post about it next time.

I'm sure your father-in-law is happy to have you as his daughter-in-law because you care so much about him too not just for his son. That park is nice especially with that little river right there.
