We were living it up as park hoppers.
My children where introduced to the joy of the playground - - - the merry-go-round. What once used to thrill me now just makes me nervous. Nervous about potential barfing and little bodies being flung off of it. Don't say it. Don't you even. I know, I know. If I were so nervous why did I let them do it? Because, honestly, it doesn't get much more fun.
We decided to lie down on the merry-go-round, after all, clinging to a pole while spinning around crazy-fast IS exhausting. Just ask Wyatt.
Calvin decided that fast spinning was No Big Whoop. Can't you tell by the casual leaning on the rail, nonchalant glancing, and confident arm folding?
We spent a little bit of time digging around in the ginormous sand pit. And no, my kids didn't seem to mind the weird-old-man-stone-carving-with-the-saggy-chest-that-looked-like-he-was -sitting-in-a-hot-tub-that-is-really-a-sandbox. 
We climbed a small rock mountain.
We almost got eaten by a hippo.
But managed to tame it long enough for a photo op.
Happy Summer!! We're so glad you're finally here!

I'm there with you! I loved the merry-go-round, teeter totter and the slide that seemed as high as the sky, and after flying down it I would land on my bum on the ground every time, but oh what FUN!
Wow...NY rocks.
That looks like tons of fun! It's hard to find those old school merry-go-rounds in these parts
Argh!! I wanna! I'm getting the need for NY again. I'm hungry.
Calvin is so cool.
Oh what a good day. I just needed the doughnut to top it off. Why didn't you mention the old man with saggy chest when we were there? Freaky...but funny.
I know it's hard being so far from family these few years, but I am Muchos jealous of all the unique opportunities the kiddos have!! Nothin quite that cool in East TN :) Enjoy it!
