A nice day a month ago…

I know the weather was nice a month ago. How?

* PHOTO ALERT. MANY PHOTOS TO FOLLOW. NONE HAVE BEEN EDITED. THESE ARE STRAIGHT OUT OF THE PHONE. THEY ARE LIFE HAPPENING WITH 5 KIDS!

I finally pulled all the pictures off of my phone and uploaded them. One particularly fine day, I took the kids to THE park.

Yes. The same park where Shayne broke her wrist. The toy she was on?

This one that Stormy was on:

And loved.

Sage had a blast. And posed for her Momma occasionally.

Connor just wanted to play…

Coop slid.

 

And laughed.

And was happy to be helped by the best big sister in the world.

And got scared when that same big sister let him down the tunnel slide without her.

Sage liked the bridge…

Stormy liked to drop from high places.

Shayne wanted to pose too.

As did Stormy.

3 of my 5 are in the next one…see them all?

Sage kept climbing this. She would get scared and go back down. But she kept trying.

Coop also had moments where he just wanted to run

       

And then slide again…

Sage was content to hang around wherever.

Stormy tried to help Connor do the monkey bars. It made my heart smile.

Stormy did the monkey bars.

There you have it. A day at the park with 5 kids.

The day at the park only lasted around an hour.

But it was a happy, full of fun hour.

The way it’s supposed to be.
