Keeping Busy




We found this really cool park near downtown Fayetteville with Tennis courts, a running trail next to a lake, and very new playground equipment. Here are a few pics of us at "Mazarak Park":




I love this one below.. I think I am going to get it blown up, maybe black and white.





Of course with the lovely heat and humidity, eventually the kids wanted to find a place to play that was air conditioned. We found the Fayetteville Children's Museum downtown, and that place totally rocks! The kids can pretend shop, play dress-up, learn about TV stations, and a whole lot of other activities that were age appropriate for all three of them. Here are just a few pictures:
Lily shopping:
Dean was racing around with that shopping cart! He did not want to move on to any other activity!

Gavin was at the working register pushing buttons and really getting into the job:

This is Gavin at the stationary bike. The computer would tell kids how many calories they burned in terms that kids can understand; for example, Gavin peddled pretty hard and it told him he burned as many calories as one glass of chocolate milk.




Gavin and Dean working with simple machines.

More pictures and blogs to come soon! Summer is almost over already!!
