A Picnic

It was a beautiful fall day and Rebecca decided that the girls should go on a picnic.
"Brooklyn and Kirsten, I say we go on a picnic in the park today. It looks lovely outside." "Yes," said the girls, "But what shall we bring to eat?" Beck thought a moment, and then said, "I will pack a surprise lunch." In no time at all they were at the park.

Kirsten and Brooke looked away while Rebecca unpacked the lunch. The dogs had come along, and were sniffing inside the box.
 

Finally Rebecca said, "Okay, you can look now!" The girls looked and smiled.

"Oh yum!" They cried together. "That's a lot of food!"

They grabbed their plates and began to load them. {Rebecca gave the dogs each a meat patty.}

Then the ate while the warm sun shone down on them.

They each got the things that they liked, and of course, some veggies to go with it.

Brooklyn was a quick eater and finished first. She told the other girls, "The dogs want to play. I'll go throw them balls.

 

Brooklyn threw balls to the dogs for awhile until it was time to leave. It had been a wonderful picnic!
