Who's Kids Are Those?

Oh, yeah, they are mine!! We went to a birthday party yesterday at a really wonderful park right near 9 news. It was an awesome day to be out as far as the weather was concerned. Saturday was sort of a waste. We had a good lightning and thunderstorm so we were not able to go out and play. When my kiddos are used to going outside each day, skipping a day is hard on them. We still had overcast skies, but that made it cool enough to not be a bother. All five of our kids ran around and played for hours, which made for a really easy bedtime. I found some great spots for pictures, and I think my little ones are actually starting to like having their pictures taken. We are going to go soon and play at the Platte River. They have made areas with grass and tiered sidewalks for families to come and play safely. Even just walking along the river is nice. We probably won't be venturing too near the water anyway. Picnicking in downtown Denver is fun. There are so many buildings and shops to see, that we can keep everyone entertained for a while. Apryl always loves the historic parts of Denver while Lexy looks for the vendors selling ice cream! Matt and I both enjoy seeing Denver through new perspectives. The Denver Library is also very neat. They have an awesome area just for little people, and it is cooler inside than out some days. Another good thing is that Denver is only 15-20 min away. Not being in the car for a long period of time is a good thing.
