7/3, again, Splash pad with Jennifer & Tami

Angelo went hiking at Tablerock. He was really sweaty when I picked him up after 5+ hours in the heat. Gave me plenty of time to catch up with my friends and their kids- hence 2 playdates in one afternoon. Poor Devin came along with the thought that Angelo would be there too. It was nice to have an extra parent there, especially when it came to the time for a picture with all the mommies.

When we moved, Settlers wasn't quite done. The play structure was, but the splash pad and sound garden weren't. Way cool!

Tami had the great idea to meet here. Jenn had the awesome umbrella- seriously huge & rainbow colored. Perfect for a park young enough not to have much shade yet.

These buckets took what seemed like forever to fill. So they'd stand and wait, and wait some more. Then, they'd give up, go to the other side & come back to get splashed on. :)







But when they did come down, lots 'o water.


In this next one is Jennifer's daughter, Alex. She and G are pretty close to the same age (Jenn & I met on a pregnancy & parenting board).

Here's the herd. Jenn's girls, the two beautiful blondes on the left. Tami brought an extra, hence the little guy in the middle. He is her nephew. Mason and Jackson have grown a ton! But, I didn't see them last year, so this is 2 years of growth. Her newest addition is Olivia. Adorable! Not quite 2 yet in this picture. Devin and I were both taking pictures at the same time (hence some of them are looking to my right).
