A morning at the park


It's been pretty windy over the last week so we haven't been outside much. With no wind and temps in the high 60's, today was the perfect day to get outside!
Every trip to the park starts with the swings. I think your foot getting stuck in the foot holes is a sure fire sign your too big for the baby swings:

Trying to decide which slide:
This one looks great!
Creative sliding is always more fun:

Mackenzie found a few friends at the park, so I was banished to the bench while she trailed after them. There was a little girl that Mack really wanted to play with. After several attempts to engage her in play, the little girls brother told Mackenzie that his little sister only speaks Spanish. Mackenzie thought hard for a second before she asked the girl " Hola! Tienes hambre?" ( Hi! Are you hungry?) The little girl shook her head and off they ran together! Thank goodness for "High Five" magazine and their spanish conversation section. My four years of high school spanish seem distant but it's fun to relearn what I've forgotten with Mackenzie.
