Sunset at the Park

John leaves for work around 3pm and Peter starts bouncing off the walls sometimes in the evenings. I took him to the park for sundown this week to just let him go and run off some energy. He seems to have so much lately! We go to the closest park, which is still a good 10 minute drive for us. It is pretty and has a great view of the mountains.


There is a bunch of sand. This kid loves to just dig into the sand with his fingers. Once or twice we have run into the problem of him throwing sand at other kids. I think he means it in fun, but we are trying to teach him that its not nice to the other kid.


And as always lately he LOVES the slides. That is the main attraction at this playground, there are about 10 slides on the 2 play areas. Peter was in heaven going up and down. He is also a super social kid. We played a while on our own but he really lit up when a few other families joined us to play. He loves having older kids to watch and play with.


My smiley kid. He's learning to smile for the camera.


Showing off his rocks. He also loves rocks. I think we will have to teach some control over the rocks. Shortly after this picture he decided that the rocks wanted to go down the slide and he began throwing rocks down. He likes to see what happens when different things go down the slide.
