Skating and the Park

Wow what a day we've had! We got up bright and early and went to Shoney's for breakfast. Man, that place was CROWDED, but the buffet was good. Then, we headed out to Lawton Park to let the kids play. Lawton Park was just renovated and it looks sssooo nice - new playground equipment, a new deck overlooking Prestwood Lake and the Big White House was remodeled as well. I've been waiting for it to be re-opened to let the kids play out there. I use to love going there as a kid. =)

Cooper in deep thought on the swings.


Olivia swinging on the "big kids" swings. =)


Cooper loved the slide!


Olivia loved the slide too!


Cooper enjoyed the new pier too. He cried when I told him we needed to leave. He made me nervous though, I had to keep telling him to stop running on the pier!


Olivia's friend at school, Tiffany, had a skating party the other weekend. Olivia had SO MUCH fun. She told me and Al that she wants her party there next year. Geez, didn't she JUST have a birthday party? =)


She insisted that Al walk beside her to keep her from falling.


Cooper even put skates on - he didn't care for them too much though. He preferred the "turtle" thingies there that he could roll around on.


It took her a few minutes but she got the hang of it pretty quick.


Olivia and Daddy on the pier at Prestwood. Isn't it a sweet pic? =)

Right now my babies are in the bath and have been outside playing all day long.....they should sleep really good tonight. =)

Wow! The memories in your pictures! Lawton Park and the skating rink. My parents don't live in H-ville anymore so we don't ever go back. The kids are getting so big!
