Springtime at the Park

I love taking pictures of kids at the playground! There's just something about all the bright colors, the interesting lines and shadows, and the smiling faces that is so cute! And, of course, Maddox and Phebe make the pictures that much cuter. Last Saturday, both kids had an overnight at Jenna and Andy's, and we spent some time at the playground at Jenna's school in the afternoon (before I left Jenna on her own with two kids - yikes!).

I'm happy to say, she survived, and so did the kids :-)Maddox's climbing skills have improved greatly since last summer!

Stretch....he's taking a REALLY big step!

This slide was very fast!

Maddox's turn, on a slightly smaller one..

Maddox discovered a fun swing.

Phebe is pretty good at pumping on her own.

She gave Maddox some great pushes.

Higher, Phebe, higher!

Jenna had to get into the act, too.

The swinging bridge was fun!

Phebe could handle this "stepper" by herself.

Maddox needed a little help, though - his little legs are still a bit too short!

Phebe practiced some sign language.

After all that fresh air and exercise, Maddox needed to take a break. Looks comfy to me!
