Parks

WARNING: LOTS OF PICTURES. :)

If you haven't noticed before-we love, love, love parks. We always have loved being outside and seeing what God does in nature and now with Addi-they are perfect places to go. She can run or walk, climb or slide, yell or whisper, stay clean or make messes and it's ALL OK. I don't have to tell her no! Wahoo! So, now that you know that, on with the post. We decided to take our time on our way to Kentucky and just find a park after Addilyn woke up for our nap. Thanks to our GPS we found a fantastic park in Mt. Vernon, IL.

A lake with ducks, perfect spot to play.
Big slides!
And swings with a back! She LOVED these. I think we'll start a search here at home for them.



Once we were (finally) in Louisville, we spent some time at Iroquois Park.

It was gorgeous. We could have spent days there.

First we took a little walk around-we could have walked all day long and not seen the whole thing!!
Then, we hit the play equipment!
ps-does this 'baby' look SO BIG to anyone else? When/How did that happen??




Honestly, the pictures don't do either park justice. These places were awesome and we just might have to make that drive again (well, maybe not anytime soon) just to see the parks!
