Double Rock Park

So we found this AWESOME park about a mile from our house. Who Knew? It is amazing, it has TWO large play areas and BOTH are in partial shade. Awesome for a hot summer afternoon. PLUS, walking trails by a small creek. SCORE! Here is our lil' lady checking out the equipment.

Just me and my shadow.....

But they both look like so much fun!

She went back and forth several times between the horse and the plane.

She got on one, looked longingly at the other and practically leapt off and ran to it.

"What's under here?"

Notice her bug bite or sting(not sure which)

Stupid bug!!

She LOVED the puzzle!

Mostly because there was a dog on it......

Haahaaa! Running away from Daddy.

Contemplating the slide

She decided to tackle it from a different angle.

And she made it.

Running to the next play area.....so much to conquer!

Heading up the stairs

Pillows "the sequel"!

Since there were such RAVE reviews for pillows, I decided to share the second video which picks up right where the last one left off. I promise it is equally hilarious!

Enjoy!!!

Pillows

I was laughing so hard when this was taken. She went on for about 15 minutes with these pillows. It was HILARIOUS! Enjoy.

Visits and just plain cuteness!

Lots of visits this week! First Uncle Jim, Aunt Jami, Rhys and baby Atherton came for a visit on Friday and THEN Grams and Poppy stopped by to help us celebrate Father's Day today! Add lots of Claire cuteness, corn and a pool and you are all set!

Claire's first sweet corn!

Definitely a HIT.

Uncle Jim cheesing it up!

Love from cousin Rhys!

Playing together!

Pool time!

I guess the crinkle-nose smile is here to stay.....

Playing with Daddy.

"Yeah, I'm fabulous......I know it.

Random Bits of Cuteness!

"Read this one, Mommy!"

She is serious about fun!
Tons of slides, stairs to climb, balls
and bubbles to chase........What did
Claire want to do? SWING!


Contemplating how to get back to the swings.....

Finally chasing some bubbles.

Grabbing a refreshment....

Mommy's was better-more fun

Ahhhhhhhhh!

Giving a VERY patient Bear some love.

Reading some more....she can't get enough :)

Hope this passion lasts!

Pool X 2!

Today Mason and Grandma Barbara came over for a visit(and a dip in the pool). The kids had a GREAT time!

Peer pressure at 15 months!

"Come on Mason.....just try it, you'll love it!"

"My cup"

Exploring the deck

"Hieeeeee"

Splasha...splasha!

Cups....the new toy!

"Heeeheeeheeeee"

"Hahaa! I knew you would like it!"

Pool Time!

Our last "big" purchase for Claire was a super blow up swimming pool(it's amazing what $30 at Target will get you )! We figured that this will provide hours of entertainment this summer. Today Brian filled it up and Claire got down to the business of fun in the shade(we have to protect that delicate skin :-)

Super excited smile!!
