Fun Day


Andy surprised us yesterday when he came home early! He had been traveling for work, and he came straight home from the airport instead of going in to the office. When he arrived home, we were a half block away, on our way to the park. We waited while he caught up.
Our first stop was at the carousel at Stinky Pants. Alli had collected two quarters so she and her friend Elijah could ride the little carousel. Ruby also got her first ride. She was thrilled.
We went to the park afterwards. Alli practised climbing the rock wall. She is a very agile climber. Ruby climbed the playground equipment with Andy close behind. She loved being way-up-high and coming down the big slide.
Alli and Elijah loved playing in the sandbox best of all. They combined water and sand to make the ultimate mess. They left the park Monday needing baths urgently. They obviously enjoyed themselves.
We ended our day with a picnic on the patio and family time. And ice cream. After a few days of Andy being gone, it was just what we needed.
