the local park

Now that I think about it, we have been very fortunate to live next to nice parks the whole time we've had children (and a dog).

This park is very close to our house (less than a 10 minute drive).  It is beautiful!  It is a great place for the kids to play, to have a picnic, and to let Max swim.  We spent a good bit of time here last summer, and I hope that will happen again this year.

Last Saturday was perfect for a day at the park...dry and sunny.  This was Jude's first time to get in the swings.  Judging from his facial expressions, he had mixed feelings about the swing.  He would laugh and the next thing I saw was a look of fear on his face.  Overall, I think he liked it, but it was funny to watch his expression change when he would be surprised by the movement of the swing.

 
 
 
 
 


In the distance, you can see downtown Seattle on the left third of the picture below.  And if you look very closely, you can see the Space Needle on the right third of the photo.
