June 11th - Playgroup at the Park

Our normal playgroup meets at the JCFRC, but we did a special at the park. We hiked it to the park about 10 blocks away only for an adventure in it self. The kids both walked alone. No stroller. Kyler decided that he was going to explore someones backyard. Madi ran ahead. Finally, about 1/2 way there we meet a nice not so friendly little pug. He was kinda, maybe interested in us but wasn't so sure. I put both kids on the other side of me and keep walking. He followed up for about a block until Mr. Old Golden Retriever made it well known that he was not to be in his yard. After scaring Pug away, he lolled over to see the kids (snif snif) and wondered away. On for a couple of blocks until Madi informed me that we could NOT WALK across the ROAD MOM because the LIGHT IS RED! She is much like daddy and don't except that she could possible be wrong. But, soon she could see the clock tower of the Library and all was good. In the final stretch Kyler took a fall resulting in a boo-boo that lasted 10 seconds and FINALLY THE PARK!


We got there and there were lots of friends. Madi liked playing on the bouncy toy in the middle of the park and Ky founds something ride on to entertain him. I sat to rest, wow what a walk! But in only minutes Kyler found the WATER! Lunch was ham sandwiches and whole made mac and cheese. Neither of the kids had much interest in dinner but continued to play. Sadly, we lost a couple of playmates to a long distance move. But, we wished them best of luck and let them know they will be missed. Closer to the end of playgroup, Grandma showed up with my van. How exciting! And they played...

HOME AT LAST, with a house full of playgroup kids for a playdate!
