lunch at the park

so for lunch today i went and picked up some food (mmm... bagels from the bagelry) and met my mom, justine, steph, hayden, and kayla for lunch. we went over to the park behind civic feild (not anything special, but close to both justine's and my mom's office's) i don't know what we were thinking.... actually, i do. we were thinking "... oh it would be fun to get together with the girls for lunch and go to a park and then the kids could play... (etc)". the bagels were good, the company was great, and we did play on the playground.... but it was FREEZING COLD!!! well maybe not quite freezing, but it was definitely not a day for a picnic in the park.
We did try make the most of it though. a runner went by with a cute little golden retriever puppy (which was so excited to see hayden and kayla) they stopped and let the kids feed the doggie little treats. it's so funny watching them (hayden & kayla) interact with random people/animals/things.... they are such good little talkers. Hayden is big into telling stories right now, and kayla does this ba-ba-ball/ ju-ju-juice etc ting. So cute!! today they learned how to climb up the slide... it's so much faster than having to walk all the way around climb all the way up (whats with the playground steps being so big!!) to take a 2 second ride down the slide...
