Abby swinging with her big floppy hat. They both started our adventure with one, but neither were too keen on the idea of wearing a hat. I guess we'll just have to get some sunscreen.

We thought they might like to swing together... We were wrong. :)

Rory's swingin' high!!

Daddy pushing both of his big girls in the swings

Rory's having so much fun swinging!!

Off to the park we go

Getting ready to head out

WE LOVE OUR NEW WAGON!!!

We have had unseasonably warm weather here for the last few days. The girls have been feeling pretty good, so we decided to take a family adventure to the park. Michael put together the girls' wagon that they got from Grandad and Mimi Sue for their birthday. The girls pretty much danced around Daddy the whole time that he was working on it. When he finished it, Rory dove head-first into the exciting new wagon (literally). We walked from our house to a little park that is about a mile from our house. The girls rode in their new wagon the whole way and had the time of their little lives!! They laughed at the birds and were amazed at cars that went by. People actually stopped their cars to tell us how cute the girls were in their fun wagon. Of course, the girls ate all of the attention right up. When we got to the park, the girls got a chance to swing on a big swing set (we haven't had a chance to put up their birthday swing set in our backyard yet) and go down a big slide!! By the time that we left the park, Michael was at the top of the slide and I was at the bottom and the girls were sliding all by themselves down the slide (the slide was a small slide). Rory thought that was the most fun ever! Abby, however, really preferred the swing to the slide. By the time we got home, both girls had played their little hearts out and were tired little girls. We plan to visit the park a lot this summer!!

P.S. ~ Thanks to some awesome advice from friends, we have won the Sippy Cup wars!! Our big girls are now drinking whole milk from a sippy cup and eating only "big people" food. It's amazing how big they are getting!!
