Splash Park

Wow, this activity was a treasure trove of great pictures! Thanks Maia for these cute pictures (the smaller ones).

















Connor brought his dinosaur squirter to play with at
our Splash Park playgroup. He wasn't really interested in it once he saw all of the cool built-in squirters in the park.

He spent a lot of time splashing in the water these big blue buckets poured out. He would wait for the buckets to fill up and would cleverly avoid it dumping on him and then jump in it's puddle. He thought that was so funny!

The Shafers brought water balloons. Connor called them rubber balloons because when the kids threw them, they didn't pop! It was so funny to see the kids run up with a mischievious look on their faces and throw a water balloon at you only to have it not burst. Their hopeful anticipation turned to disappointment really quickly. That didn't keep them from trying though! It was classic kids play.

After the balloons, the kids played on the playground. Connor and his friends Luke and Ayla couldn't resist climbing up a large boulder. Then they pretended to be "sleeping." It was really cute.

The Shafers also brought popsicles for all the kids. They
were a real hit. Thanks Ashley! What a fun morning we had.
