Playing in Nature!

Thursday night I took the kids to the new Natural Playscape area at Jester Park. They had a hay-day playing with everything nature. We grabbed some food on the way there and had a picnic. Cole was so excited because about every 200 feet deer would pass in front of us on the road through the park. So we ended up seeing about 25 deer up close. Then when we finally made it all the way to the Playscape he got to stand pretty close to some bison & elk. The kids got totally soaked and had the place all to themselves. Cole could not stop talking about the whole experience on the way home.

All this golf must be paying off... Tyler played in a 4 man best shot tournament last weekend and - THEY WON! He and 3 other neighbors played in a fundraiser for "Operation First Response" (supporting wounded heroes and their families). And this weekend he played in the Jester Park Amateur and won 1st place in his flight. Way to go Dad!

Friday night Tyler & I went to a dinner/pool party at his bosses house. We stuffed ourselves with unbelievable food, sang karaoke (Tyler), and relaxed in the hot tub. Saturday I tried to catch up on projects that have been on my "to do" list for weeks now. Fun things like painting, and cleaning our closet.... BORING! Sunday we got to relax by the pool with the kids.

Cole starts vacation Bible school tonight - he's really looking forward to it. It's a whole "Power Lab" theme, which means playing with slime!

Here are pictures from this weekend and last!
