Playing at the Park

Julia's schedule allowed us to head over to the neighborhood park late in the afternoon. Even though Evelyn couldn't round up any of her friends to join us, she still had fun. Shortly after we got there, a chipmunk came over to check us out. It didn't take long before he scampered away. Evelyn also saw a huge orange spider hanging out on its web. Every time Evelyn climbed the playground equipment where the spider web was, she called out, "Hello spider!" But she kept her distance. Evelyn did basket hangs on the monkey bars, slid down the slides (but avoided the puddles from this morning's rain!), and pulled roots from the mulch. Julia was content to kick back and play with her toes, so I didn't need to take out any of the toys I brought along for her.
