Playground Fun at the Campground



Maggie sat opposite me on the teeter totter and did some squats to make her go up and down.  Good way to sqeeze in some exercise at the playground :)


The slide was a hit again.


Mena was "no hands" and stomping her feet on the metal slide to make lots and lots of noise!
 
 
 


As with all children, dirt (and wood chips) are a great place to play.
 


I think the metal merry-go-round was cool to lay on when Maggie got hot.


All the kids on the merry-go-round for a group picture!

Shannon taught the girls how to play flashlight tag, but it ended up being more a game of "where's Mena's flip flop" since she kept losing her shoe while she was running!  Mena saw how much Jacob was riding his bike, and she kept following him on her bike.  Jacob never waited for her, but Mena was happy to keep riding around the same area that he was in.  Mena also followed Jacob onto the playground we were camped beside (the new one, not the one I got pictures on).  I think she felt safer with someone she knew nearby.

We got the best site we've gotten so far at Louisville.  It was right beside the new playground and just a short walk to the beach.  We went swimming both Friday and Saturday.  I was successful in getting fires started both nights so we could roast marshmallows and our brats and hot dogs.  The playground was so close that the kids could ride bikes and play while we got meals ready.  It was a great weekend away before my fall classes started up.  We're done camping for the year.
 


These last two pictures are ones that Mena took of Maggie when she was using the camera.
