It's a beautiful day. Mid 60's, sunny. It's been a while. We had a spell there where the temps got up into the 70's and then actually broke 80 once. Two days later the high was 30. It's been like that for about two weeks now - 30s/40s, overcast, snow, wind, you name it - all the things I don't like.
Today, however, I had to drop off a permission slip for Beenie. I piled Stewie and Munchkin in the car and headed off to drop off the form. The trip took a total of five minutes. Since it was such a nice day I decided to take the long way home, and while we were out I thought, "we should go to the park." I didn't say anything to the kids.
We pulled in to the park and Stewie said, "Look! A playground!" We were the only ones there and the kids had a great time!! After about 10 minutes a group of other kids showed up, and about 10 minutes after that we headed home for lunch. It was good to get out and the kids didn't want to leave. I figure now that the weather is getting nicer we can get the wagon cleaned up and walk over there a couple of times a week. At least that's the plan - make sure I've got my priorities straight!
How did Munchkin do, I hear you ask? She did great. Even though she's only 19 months old, she climbs all the equipment (some with a little help) and really loves going down the slide. She got to play on the playground equipment at another park last night when we all went for KeKe's soccer practice, so she was happy for the chance to play again.
I just wish I had thought to throw my camera in the car. Oh, well, next time.
