Park

There's a park about 2 miles or so from our house.

Back in the day when our life wasn't so full of activities we spent lots of time there.

In fact one of the very first posts I wrote on this blog back in November of 2006 was about Francis Beatty Park and "park politics."

It's right here if you want to read it.

It's actually kind of funny to go back and read that post.

There were many weeks in the fall and the spring of years past that we'd meet friends there more than once a week.

We've packed many a picnic lunches and even a few dinners there.

I remember carrying Riley around in a Baby Bjorn at the park.

I used to keep a basket of sand toys and trucks in my car all the time just in case.

But times have changed.

We went the other day - since Mother Nature is confused and has decided that we should just skip winter all together this year.

This past week we had a couple of days close to 70 and one or two more in the low 60s and sunny.

Jack, Carson, Evelyn and JP played soccer for a bit and then some game called SPUD or something like that.

The little girls spent lots of time doing what the big kids used to do:

Building things.

Rolling logs around.

Carrying rocks from one pile to the next.

And this little cutie?

We haven't seen her in a little while but she's just as cute as ever.

She was practicing rolling her eyes at us.

Adorable!

Until next time...
