There's The Park


We ventured out again today looking for that park we didn't find last weekend. And since I had looked at Google Map's Satellite view, I knew where to go this time. The park is pretty nice. Nowhere near as nice as the Clemyjontri park mind you, but not bad for a county supported park.




The park had tennis courts, a basketball court, swings and a large playground area. Everything needed to keep the kids entertained for a while. Both kids were a bit on edge from lack of sleep, but they got their second wind once we actually got to the park. Catherine played pretty hard and looked like she was feeling the heat, although it wasn't that hot out today thankfully.




Both kids eventually were able to do the sliding pole by themselves (insert Chris Rock's joke about a father's job being "to keep your son off the pipe and your daughter off the pole" here).




The swings are a bit higher than what the kids are used to, so they required a bit of help actually getting into the swing (although to give them credit, they tried really hard before we actually decided to go over and help them).


Ginger had a stamping party thing to attend tonight. So while she was off having fun I was here with the kids. Which turned out to be pretty fun also. Although I got stuck with dinner and bed duty (heh, I said duty), which means there's not a lot of playing time in there. Anyway, she eventually came home (she just can't stay away) and above are the cards she made tonight.


And one of the Hydrangeas out front has finally started blooming. This is the only boom so far though, and I only found it by accident as it was buried within the middle of the bush (not sure why the ones that get more sun haven't bloomed and this one did though, that just seems odd to me).
