Bikes and Water at the Park

The kids and I went to one of our favorite parks to play the other day. Mason's new thing is taking his bike with us to the park. So we took the bikes and suits and the kids rode their bikes and then when they got hot they would ride or run through the water. We have loved the water toys that they have at some of the parks. It makes the heat seem so much more bearable. Mason was a daredevil riding his bike through some of the big sprays. It was so much fun to watch the kids run around and have fun instead of being trapped inside on a hot day.

Pajama Day at School

The other day Mason had Pajama Day at school. At first he was really confused about the whole thing. He is very particular about what he wears to preschool and he has certain clothes that he has deemed school clothes. Which he did all on his own. So he will only wear certain outfits. Which at first was really hard when his school wardrobe consisted of one shirt that he considered his school shirt. He at first insisted on wearing that one shirt every Tues. and Thurs. to school . I am sure his teacher was feeling bad for the kid who only had one shirt to wear. So after doing laundry every couple days I gave up and bought a couple more shirts that he would consider school shirts. So you can guess how hard it was at first for us to explain that this one day he could wear his pajamas. After a lot of convincing and him telling me numerous times that we only wear pajamas at night. He finally agreed. And once he was on board about the whole thing he was really excited. It was so fun to see him get so excited about something so little. When he got home he said his favorite part of school is when all of the kids got into a line and then each one got to step out and show off their cool pajamas. He is so funny. So it turned out to be a good p.j. day at school.

Picnic at the Park

The other day I decided to take the kids to the park and pack a picnic for the afternoon. Mason was so excited he could hardly stand it. We had so much fun. Mason kept telling me how happy he was that we got to go and have a picnic and that it was the greatest day ever. Kinley loved going down the slides and she just made laps going down the slides and then would run back around to the stairs and do it all over again. She made me dizzy just watching her. Both Kinley and Mason love being outside. I think they both could have stayed there all day long. We are so lucky to have so many fun parks all around us to go play at. That is one thing we have found is that around every corner it seems there are a ton of really neat parks here in Vegas.
