I am in Springfield with the kids for the week and this morning we played at Willamalane Park, one of my favorite childhood parks. It's changed quite a bit from when I was a snot-nosed kid, but they still have this hippo in the sand box. I have so many fond memories of playing on this. I loved pretending that it was a car with my sisters or friends and inevitably there would be some arguing over who got to sit in the "drivers seat" on the hippo's nose. Now if they would just bring back "the Arc of Triumph." (bonus points to my siblings who remember this)
Here are Gabe, Emma and I standing in our Rubbermaid storage bin "pool" on the back patio. Me thinks we need to get a bigger pool.
Rachel wants me to point out that it's not her best work, or preferred medium, but I think it's pretty dang good, myself. :-)
