The Big Acorn Park

Gabriella often greets me in the morning with a question...

"What are we going to do today mommy?" 

and by that she really means... 
"please, please take us somewhere fun today!" 

My usual response is something along the lines of, "Well, Gabby, we're going to have all kinds of fun at home today! We can do whatever you'd like!" I usually throw in a few ideas to get her little mind thinking about the day's possibilities; craft, read together, play outside, go to the park, bake together, build a fort, etc. 

Going to the park is always among their favorite of things to do. While we LOVE our neighborhood park, Gabriella will occasionally ask about going to "the big acorn park". Honeycutt Park (the acorn park) is across town so we don't get the opportunity to visit it much but when we do, we love it! 

Today we were out and about so we made reason to visit! The chilly, early morning provided us with the entire park to ourselves, not that we ever mind sharing. :) 

Climbing and hanging...

Following the leader...

He's so cute!

Beautiful Gabriella in the covered slide..

All three...

Weeeee...

Head first...

Pure joy..

Gabriella tried so hard to pull Mikey up the slide but it just wasn't working...

So she decided to try and pull him up with her legs.  It definitely gave her more length...

but still, no luck! 

A twig "T"...

A twig "Y"...

And my favorite of the day. 

One, two, three...

Until next time, Big Acorn Park!
