"it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood..."

I took the kids to the park to play today. The temp was well into the sixties, and other than a little mud, the afternoon was perfect. Caden and Laica had a blast! Laica loves wandering all over the playground. Caden was sliding constantly! He was scared to go by himself at first, it didn't take too long for him to warm up and let loose.


We made some friends while we were there. This is Emma with Caden at the slide.


Taking a brief break for the camera while yelling into this pipe contraption. He spent a lot of time doing this.

Ms. Laica Lyn after sliding. That child has no fear. I have wo watch her like a hawk if she is up high on the playground equipment. She loves to slide by herself and is an integral part of the Caden, Laica, Mommy Express.
I spent some time on the swings. Always has been, always will be my favorite playground actvity. Swinging makes me feel like I am 5 years old again. Nothing else is going on except that very moment. I hope I am able to swing when I am 75. Maybe I will have a porch swing by then... I will definitly have a set of rocking chairs on the front porch, worn in and inviting anyone to sit and enjoy the next sunset.
Well, probably time to wrangle the muddy monsters into the bathtub. Laica took a short nap and Caden has not had one, so I am hoping for an early bedtime for the both of them. Maybe, just maybe, I can spend some quiet time with Clint this evening.
