As I've said before, we have had a marvelously beautiful summer this year. Recently, I took the kids to Bitterlake Park to burn off some energy and enjoy the morning sunshine.
We had the playground to ourselves, which is always a perk; it makes it much easier to keep track of the kids and know their whereabouts at any given moment. And, of course, as soon as we get to the play area, one kiddo heads 180 degrees from where the other one goes. These are the times I really do need eyes in the back of my head!
Both kids had a fantastic time playing and exploring the play equipment. They went up and down (and up and down) the slides, across the monkey bars, across the wobbly bridge, on the merry-go-round, and much more. I loved watching our kids play because this was one of the days they found a perfect balance between independent play and playing as a two-some.

Conor in jail ... OK, not really .... just at the top of the climbing structure |

I've realized that her feet weren't on the ground in any of these pictures .... that's a pretty accurate representation of the day! |

Someone had looped the swings around the upper bars, making the swings too high for the kids to sit on; that didn't stop Conor from having his fun, though! |
