Authors Note: My lord it's been awhile since I updated. I'm so terribly sorry, but with school, and all, the only thing I've been able to do was start stories, and hope to God that I'll be able to update soon, PLUS, We're moving, my family is moving to a townhouse, so it's been quite hectic, but, school's almost over and I'll update more often, alrighty? Plus our internet has been going down frequently. On with the chapter.

::Picnic in the Woods.::

Tara kissed Ceris and Valadon good night, and walked into her bedroom. Legolas lay back, propped up by pillows reading a book. He looked up as he heard her walk into the room, "Ah, did they listen to you? I have no bearing over them anymore." Tara smiled softly at him, "You're too nice, that's why," She chuckled, "You spoil those children rotten."

"It's not my fault that I love them so much."

Tara pouted, "What about me??"

Legolas leaned forward and pulled Tara onto the bed, "I love you just as much." He mumbled as he nuzzled her neck, "Are you too tired?"

She looked at him, mischief shining in his eyes, "You randy elf…No I'm not too tired." He grinned.

~*~*~*~Sorry people but I'm not one to write scenes like that…~*~*~*~*~

The sun shone brightly through the sheer curtains, of a certain elf's room.

Legolas rolled over onto his side and looked at Tara's sleeping form, tucking a few wisps of hair behind her ear, he kissed her forehead, and began to rise for the bed.

Tara looked at Legolas as he got dressed, Legolas feeling someone was staring, looked over in Tara's direction.

"Ah a peeping Tom."

"It's not a peeping Tom when you married to the person…So we'll call it, a staring Tara." She grinned.

"And you said that I was bad…Your worse." His eyes twinkled.

"I know."

"Shall we take the children on a picnic today?" Tara looked up from playing with the bedding.

"I think they'd enjoy that, yes."

~*~
Valadon grinned from the partially closed door, he pushed it open with excitement.

"Ada! We going on Picnic?!" Legolas whirled around smirking, "There's our peeping Tom!" He picked Valadon up and spun around the room with him.

"Ada is it true? A picnic?!" Legolas looked at his son's sparkling eyes, "Yes, it's true."

Tara smiled at the scene before her, "Why don't you two go get Ceris while I get dressed?"

Legolas nodded and carried Valadon into the nursery.

~*~*~*~

The spring air blew Valadon's hair back as he ran down the hill with his father. Tara trailed behind carrying Ceris, the infant seemed to enjoy the spring day as much as she was.

The birds were chirping merrily as Legolas laid down the blanket for them to sit on. As they sat, Valadon was sword fighting a tree with a stick.

Legolas grinned, "He's enjoying this."

Tara watched as Valadon began to strip off his clothes, "Aye, a little too much." She got up and handed Ceris to Legolas as she ran to try and catch the half nude toddler.

Loud shouts of "VALADON PUT THAT BACK ON!" and "YOU'LL CATCH A CHILL YOU SILLY ELFLING!" Echoed throughout the meadow. Legolas shook his head as he watched his wife carrying a struggling, fully clothed, Valadon.

"I understand that you dislike clothing…but you don't go frolicking naked throughout the meadow when it's Spring!" Valadon squirmed, "Mumma put me downs!!!" She let him down and Valadon ran to his father for back up, "Ada, why cants I runs free!?" Legolas smiled, "It's still far to cool for you to be running wildly without your clothing."

As the sun sunk lower, and dusk came, Legolas and Tara carried back the sleeping children, both worn out from they're adventure.

Alrighty, That's the chapter…I'll try and update sooner, I promise…I'm terrible sorry. Please Read and Review.
