Summer Fun Begins

What a way to start summer.....The weather over Memorial Weekend was so cool that jackets and long pants were the standard dress. Then by Saturday we were back to 98 degrees and the girls wanted to go swimming or at least play in the water. We discovered a new city park near our house. The Hidden Valley Park it is totally geared to family & kids. There is a splash pad, swings for both babies and big kids. There is also a play ground for all sizes as well. By the time we left at 5:30 pm the park was full and there was no parking available. This could quickly become one of our favorites.
Ryder even joined the fun and he was ok until the water changed directions and hit him right in the face.
The girls are showing me one of the spots they could hide or climb. They couldn't decide.
Check out the no slide splash pad. Reganne is trying to reach Dad so he could toss her in the water again.
Everyone is tired and cold....or are they??? They were actually resting up and ready for another go round on the play ground. We finally left when they were hungry and the smells of nearby barbeques were driving us crazy.
It is hard work learing how to crawl, roll, and torment his sisters. He was eating his dinner and fell asleep before he could finish. He is growing so quickly that I am amazed. He now weighs 15 pounds 7 ounces. That was a one pound growth spurt in 2 weeks. He has finally learned how to hold his own bottle.

What a fun park. Hope it has bathrooms -- that's my pet peeve about our local parks. There's no bathrooms. That's important for us as Robyn is a frequent visitor to bathrooms.
