Play date at the Tot Lot

This blog will consist of mostly pictures.  The weather today was beautiful, so Brandi and I ventured into the wild blue yonder with our four children to the local Tot Lot.  It was a total blast and for the penny pincher in all of us-- totally free!!!  The kids played very, very well together and the equipment was a perfect mix of entertainment for the two different age groups.


First we had to drive to the park:


Tessa drives Reagan for a bit, but Reagan would have appreciated Tessa's chic sunglasses!
Getting frisky on their first date. 
Driving Ms. Daisy with a very happy copilot!

Then we hit the swings:

Besties swinging together.
JJ loved feeling the wind through his hair!
Baby girl loves the swing too!

Push!!!  Brandi sends Tessa sky high!
Now it's Ashton's turn to reach the moon!

Next, we played on the equipment:
Reagan loves to clap, clap, clap!
Ashton bounced on this mystery animal, which Brandi says is a pelican. 
 JJ played with the wood chips even though we wished he wasn't so fascinated with them.  All I see is Jonny (JJ's dad) in this picture...
Finally, we tested every slide in the park:

Tessa always looks diva.   What I love about this picture is her grown up outfit.  If she wasn't going down a slide, you'd swear she was on her way to the store. 
Babies going down the slide!
The final equipment test included a ride by the parents.  Here's Brandi coming down with JJ, who is clearly having a wonderful time!
