Park Bums

For the past couple of weeks we have spent several hours at the park every weekday.  The weather has been so beautiful and we just can't resist being outside.  We rotate between several different parks but by far I think Leila's favorite is the new park behind the post office.  We usually head to the park around noon or one and spend several hours there.  We lay out our blankets, bring lunch or a whole bunch of snacks and lots of water and just hang out.  Paul tells me I'm a park addict but we prefer to call ourselves park bums (oh and when I say we I'm talking about a bunch of girls in our ward and their kids).  It is so fun to kick back, chat, eat and watch the kids play.  And one of my favorite parts is how tired Leila is every night, she is completely worn out by the time we get home.  If anyone is interested in going let me know and I will text you anytime we go to the park ( which is pretty much every day), we definitely are not an exclusive group we welcome anyone that wants to join us.

It was pretty hot this day and Leila decided that even her dress was much to hot to wear, it took a lot of convincing to get her to put it back on

Oh and Greydon loves the park and is sooo good when we go, he usually sleeps for a bit and then wakes up and just hangs out on the blanket.  I can only think of one time that we had to leave because he was being fussy and I'm pretty sure he was fussy because we had already been at the park for like 4 hours.  We usually have to leave so we can get home to make dinner and see Paul.  The other nice thing about spending everyday at the park is that my house stays much cleaner because we are not at home to mess it up.  Oh how we love the park!
