Beautiful Day~

Another wonderful day, and wow, were the kids and I busy!!! We were at the park before 9:30 this morning!!! Then it was off to buy Lauren some new sandals, lunch out and playing in the water fountain. After naps, we spent the entire afternoon playing outside. The neighbor kids came over for a bit to play too. The kids are tired this evening....and, so is Mommy! Lots of playing and sun will make everyone tired, but I am NOT complaining. I will take this weather anytime!!!

Lauren always loves to swing, but now that she can climb up the stairs, she seems to really enjoy the slides too.

Jack spent a lot of time trying to master the monkey bars today. He has only been able to hang from them, but now he can move from bar to bar. What a big boy! There is vidoe proof of this below!!
How can you not be happy when playing at the park???
Taking a break on the bench. Lauren looks so old to me in this pic.

Running up and down the grass hill.

We NEVER eat out for lunch, but today we were at Streets of Tanasbourne to buy Lauren her sandals, so we went in for pizza. The kids ate a ton...they were a bit hungry from the nearly two hours of playing at the park
After lunch, they played in the water fountain...
A little snack after naps....
Lauren showing off her new hat (which she never kept on) and her new sandals.

Who knew tiny rocks could be so amazing? They love playing in gravel. And, Lauren doesn't mind getting ALL dirty, unlike our little Jack. The messier the better for Lauren!!!

Here is Jack trying to figure out the monkey bars at the park. He actually got a bit further than this, but of course I was running after Lauren and couldn't get it on video.
