Getting caught up .... Part 4 - Holvander Park

The same weekend that TJ and Stef went out of town we made a trip to Holvander park. It was fun. I don't really know much about it (the park that is) but it's cool... we used to have church gatherings there all the time, and the Highland games are held there every year.... they've got a play area for the kids, a tower that you can climb up and look out over the park.... some animals ... chickens, geese, rabits, sometimes pigs..... it's pretty cool.. this rooster was incredibly tame... kayla put her hand in the cage and would play with its beek and it's red gobbley thing... it amazed me cause once upon a time we had this rooster named mascara that was the meanest thing ever... we would have to go to gather the eggs with a shovel or a 2x4 just in case he came chasing after you.
Nanna told Hayden a story about a boy who went to the park with his family one day... they were resting in between games of kicking the ball around.
Hayden really didn't want to share.... he kept telling Nanna that he wasn't any good at it.... he wanted the ball all to himself. It was pretty funny.... but Nanna kept at him and by the end he was sharing very nicely.
Here is sweet Kayla making fish lips.... this is how she comes at you when she wants kisses.... it's pretty adorable!
Here the kids are taking another break. This was a huge fireplace at the covered eating area thingy.... it had these two tunnels on either side of the fireplace that the kids loved climbing thru.
