Park play!

We love to play at the park! Any park. And if You listen closely it sounds like Elias is saying "pork" as in the other white meat. Here are some shots of us at the park this summer. 

Notice Elias in the background. It looks like an intentional pose but it's not. It's one of the few moments a day when he's standing still...captured on camera!

I call this the "praise Jesus!" picture

Shock and awe!

Isn't that the most kissable little face you've ever seen?

Elias calling out plays with Daddy. Don't be fooled by my fleece outfit and winter boots.This was in fact during the month of May. 

Lincoln hanging out in the picnic shelter with Aunt Essie.

We discovered this gem with several trains less than 2 miles from our house. who knew!?! The park also boasts a petting zoo, enormous jungle gyms and wide open spaces for pick up games. 

Lincoln Is so proud of himself for playing in the big boys swing that he gives himself a round of applause!

Actually, Lincoln is only allowed in the swing at the park. He tends to put the mulch in his mouth so we must keep him corralled within the confines of the hard rubber pendulum.
