Park Play

I love going to the park in the spring.  I love watching the kids play, enjoying the finally warm weather, and just being outside, away from home where you can't see all the other things that you should be doing. Totally carefree.  Usually I try to go about once  a week if the weather is nice, but for some reason this year I hadn't even taken my kids to the park until last Saturday.  We all rode our bikes to the soccer games on Saturday, and on the way home we decided to stop at the park and play.  The kids had a great time.  Our friends, the Hardings, had the same idea and they were at the park too.  That was great because now all the kids had a friend to play with.  Sadie didn't know if she liked the slide, or swings at first. She was a little cautious about everything, but before long she was sliding by herself and having a great time.  Brynli learned how to do the monkey bars all by herself.  She thought she was pretty big.  Derek had fun chasing after his girlfriend Abbie, and Kamryn and Austin pretty much mastered the swings.  We had so much fun that we have been back to the park two more times this week.  Monday night for family home evening we rode our bikes and had a picnic and lesson at the park.  The kids all thought that was great.  Then on Wednesday our ward had a play group that met at the park so we took advantage of that.  Now that we remember how fun the park is, we will have to go more often.  Is anyone up for a day at the park?
