Picnic at the Park

We have been park rats recently. Any opportunity to go to the park and we GO. Truly! I have been soooooo sick of being stuck in the house the last several months. It has been a much needed break and we love enjoying the beautiful weather! Today we went to a nearby park and had a play date with some of our friends. Deanna & I brought food for a picnic and that was a real treat! My friend Jenny also came with her two youngest boys, Rowan & Beckett. Her daughter Lane is in the first grade and was at school. I took care of Lane 7 years ago in the NICU. She was a 28 weeker and I was her "primary" nurse. Needless to say, during the close to 3 months she was there, I became really good friends with her mommy & daddy! It's so nice that we have kept our friendship all these years!
It was a a fun day at the park!!

Swinging is sooooo much fun!

Our picnic lunch!

I love the cheesy smiles on Landon & Claire!


Rowan & Beckett playing on the slide! Such sweet, sweet boys!


Miss Independent! She did NOT want my help at all!

Jenny & Deanna hanging out with some of the kiddos!

Walking down the slide. My daredevil. I'm not use to this and I'm not so sure I like it either! She scares me to death!

I was so proud of Claire. This is the first time she actually played at the park. Normally all she wants to do is swing.

Rowan, Claire & Landon on the swings! Claire & Landon spent most of their swing time on their bellies!
