time

We loaded up the minivan and headed to Brick or Treat at Legoland.

Photobucket

Although we have passes, this time was different.

Photobucket

It could have been the costumes.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Or the giving in to special treats.

Photobucket

Or the souvenirs that we always say "no" to.

Photobucket

Or perhaps it was the stroller.

Photobucket

We brought it along to hold the candy bags. We haven't used it for a kid for over a year.

But catching glimpses of Charlie in it reminded my how fast that time went and it made me pause.

Photobucket

As we walked out to the parking lot, I said to Kevin, "This is what it is all about. These days are hard, but man are we going to miss this time before we know it."

Photobucket

So we are drinking time in.

Photobucket

Gulping.

Much love,
Katie

Linking up with Jami.

I was just saying the same thing to Aaron while we were on vacation. It goes by fast and we have to stop and remember that.
