Our Day In the Sun

There's a huge possibility that when it's warm and sunny outside, we get a little stir crazy being stuck INSIDE. Not expecting this gorgeous day, Jaylinne and I decided we should probably take advantage of it and head to the park! Not wanting to go alone, we decided to call Laura and she if she wanted to load up Dayne and Dalys and come with us (Dylan was in school. SUCKER! ;)) Clad in our short sleeves and capris, off we went!

Whenever we decide to go to the park, we always go to the same one.  It has a swing set, a playground, lots of grass, and even a duck pond. (YES! A duck pond!) There is a twisty slide that Jaylinne refers to as, "The Big One." It was a big accomplishment for us last summer when she started doing it all by herself. No more of this stomping up the stairs, and crying at the top until mom/dad/grandma/grandpa climb their feeble, creaking bones up those same steps to rescue her business. She did it, she conquered The Big One. So with Dylan being in school, she finally got her opportunity to be the oldest one. The "leader," if you will. She jumped at the opportunity to show Dayne the ropes. Much to her chagrin, little Dayne raced up the stairs and down the slide before she even knew what was happening. With no hesitation. He even wound up backwards once! That show-boater :)



So for a few hours it was a whirlwind of slides, swings, and jungle gyms (OH MY!)







There was no shortage of kids at the park today, that's for sure! We had the pleasure of meeting a handsome little gentleman who goes by the name of Treagan. That little guy was hands down the most polite child at the park! And believe me when I tell you: a polite child at this particular park is NOT the norm. He saw me taking pictures and kept asking me to take his picture too. What a HAM! Good for his mom and dad for a job well done :)



Baby Dalys isn't so sure about the whole playground concept, but she's definitely on board for any and all enterprises that require naked  baby feet :) But what she really wants to know is: who in the heck is shining that light right into her eyes?! What a cutie pie :)
