Union Park

The weather here has been so fantastic--high 70s/low 80s so of course we have been trying to spend every minute outside! We spent the evening at Union Park last night. 

Climbing up the ramp to the rocket slide. They also loved sliding down this ramp, which we had to put an end to when it became more like bowling as they were running in to kids walking up. 

Down the slide-don't let the face fool you...he loved it!

Then across the parking lot to the carousel. Before we went, the kids packed baggies with enough quarters to ride it five times each...which they did! 

Here's to hoping we keep getting spoiled with this amazing weather!

At the Car Wash

Last weekend Andrew was on a mission to wash his car...just like daddy does. He spent quite some time on it...just like daddy does and ended up with a very clean Cozy Coupe! 

Slip & Slide

Yesterday our city had a little festival that we checked out. They had crafts, a rock-wall and some live music, but the best thing was this gigantic water slide that the fire department provided. 

The photos aren't great but the kids sure had a fantastic time!

A picture of the slides to get an idea of its size. The water was from a hose that was blasting from the ladder on top of the firetruck. 

Kate & Andrew trying out the little one (pictured on the far right above). This lasted exactly one time before they requested the big ones. 

 At the top with daddy. 

 Trying out the second big one. 

 Then Andrew decided "I go all by my be-self"...so he did. 

 After seeing her brave (crazy?!) two year old younger brother go alone, Kate joined him on the next time down. 

What a fun way to spend a summer afternoon!
