Getting to the Park

There is a park near our house that we have walked to many times.  We have walked, pushed strollers, ridden scooters, and ridden bikes.  

Today was Addie's first time going on her new roller blades.  I have to say I didn't think she would make it there and back on her new wheels.  She was fully prepared with all the padding and a determined spirit.

Ben was prepared with 2 pop guns.

Riding over the uneven side walks was not easy, but she did so well.

Malachi was using his tricycle and he loves it.  He is a wild man at the wheel so he rode on just the back tires.

Garrett took a hard fall, but he is so tough, he popped right back up.

At the park Malachi showed his determination to keep up with the big kids.  He can now climb this ladder all by himself.

I love this look.

Spring in Paris is just beautiful.  

Addie needed to take a break.

My favorite picture of the day.

Nannie ended up with both guns and both scooters and we finished our walk through the park.

And on the way home we stopped for the flowers.  These flower beds get changed out regularly and I just love them.

This tree is one of my favorites right now. I love how fluffy the blossoms look right now.

And then we made it home and we all felt a bit like this.  Addie did make it all the way to the park, around the park and home on her roller blades.  I was so proud of her.  

I love this walk and I am going to miss it when we move.  The flowers, the houses, and the fun park have meant so much to us over the last 2 years.  I am thankful we have a couple more months to enjoy and that they are the most beautiful months of the year.
