Crazy Slide

We went to the playground the other day and the girls discovered this slide was loaded with static electricity.  Livi's hair showed it better and was way funnier than Juli's.  

Happy Birthday Brenna!

Today was Brenna's 5th birthday party. It was at an awesome playground pretty close to our house that we had never been too. The girls loved it and I can't wait to take them back!

Livi trying to decide if she would go down the roller slide. She eventually did and loved it, but she was scared at first!

What a monkey!

The girls cooling down under the misting fountain.

Peek a boo!

Cake time!

Another Day, Another Playground

This time we went with Cici, Katie, Ryan and Maddie, while Daddy stayed behind to help Uncle Joe with some stuff.

This one was a special request from Katie - she wanted me to take her picture while she was "WAY UP HIGH!"

Whoa! Scary hair!

Don't let them fool you, they only look sweet and innocent.

Ryan was loving the swing!

Playtime

We took the girls to a playground we don't usually go to. They had a blast. We will try to get them back to that playground more often. Here are some of the highlights.

At the Playground

Before heading home, we went to one of the playgrounds in the community to burn off some energy. We were hoping they fell asleep in the car and we got a nice quiet ride. I don't think Juli ever fell asleep, but she watched her movie quietly, so it wasn't bad.

A Day at the Park

Last weekend we went to the park so the kids could play and Juli could spend some time on her bike.

Livi relaxed with a juicebox while Juli rode around Safety Town.

I am sending this post from my phone, so not sure how it will look. Hope it's okay!

Playground time!

We took a little break and went out for some fresh air. The girls were happy to get to the playground!

Livi "driving"

For some reason Juli wanted me to take her picture in front of this sign.

Safety Town

On Monday, we picked up Katie and took all the girls to Safety Town to ride their bikes. They had a blast!

Juli and Katie devising a plan, I'm sure.

OH MY GAWD, those two are getting on my last nerve!

Livi had a good time being a pedestrian in safetytown.

Juli going for a ride. She has been doing really well on this bike. She keeps asking us when we are going to take her training wheels off. Uh, never. LOL

We did go over to the playground too, but I didn't get too many good pictures over there since the kids kept splitting up.

Summer Days

With the summer days drifting away, we keep trying to squeeze in more summer fun before it is over. We went to two playgrounds, yes two! The first one was pretty old and run down. We decided to look for a better more up to date one. I liked the picture of Livi above, so I made it more antique-looking to go with the antique seesaw they were one!

Ok so it wasn't really antique, just in bad need of a paint job!

At the newer playground, Juli found a slide that must have been quite the hair-raising experience! LOL That's some crazy static!

And yet she kept going back for more!

Livi was loving the "Livi-sized" equipment.

Kids Castle

Yesterday we took the girls to a park in Doylestown. This is just one of the playground sections called "Kids' Castle".

Juli waiting patiently for me to go in.

There are all different little themes throughout the castle. Juli is at the puppet show that had a little mini amphitheater seating below where she is standing.

We had to go all through the castle to find this slide. Then I had to find a quick way out to get to the bottom without losing Juli! Luckily there was a quick exit to the right.

There was so much to see that she only lasted about 30 seconds on the swing.

The castle in all it's glory. I think it said that it is six stories. I don't really remember, we didn't make it all the way to the top. That's Juli walking up the plank of the pirate ship.

Livi loved the slide at the firehouse section. It goes down into a sand pit where the girls played for a little while.

Here's Juli in the sand pit with her concentration face on. She gets that face from her dad.

It was sweltering hot out and it was only about 10 AM! You can see Juli's cheeks are all red. We promised to return again soon, so we were able to leave without much of a tantrum!
