Gorgeous Winter Day

We've had some beautiful weather recently. Cold but lots of wonderful sunshine. Today was slightly overcast but we took advantage of the dry spell and took the kids to the park. We picked up our friend's daughter, Claire and took her along as well. We went down to our largest city park down by the beach. There is a nice play area designed for toddlers and preschoolers. So it is the perfect park to take Aidan to.

All the kids had a blast despite the cold temperature. Matt pushed Chloe and Claire high on the swings causing them to squeal in delight. The girls played on the teeter-totter and the monkey bars, even though the bars were freezing. Aidan was running everywhere just excited to actually be outside. He became quite good at the slide and can climb up and go down on his own. A huge plus for our little man who has decided to be completely independent from Mom, Dad and Chloe.

After about forty-five minutes of letting the kids burn off their cabin fever we decided it was time to go. So we packed them all up in the Suburban (it is so nice having a big car), red noses and all and headed home. It was a nice way to wrap up the weekend.
