Sunday was one of *THOSE* days...you know, the perfect summer ones? :)
We decided to go down to the town park and purchase a set of pool passes so we could go down there whenever we wanted and make some use of those swim lessons we were taking the Little Miss to. Okay, and so we could take a dip too when ever we wanted. It felt kinda like a right of passage in this whole parenthood thing to me :).
There was plenty of shade so we parked the Littlest Miss in the shade where she spent most of the time sleeping the day away. Daddy and I took turns trying to get Little Miss to go through the sprinklers at the water playground or into the pool.
We had no luck for the most part with the sprinklers but after a while she warmed up to the kiddie pool, it was only 1 1/2 - 2 feet deep so she could walk in it (holding our hand of course) and after she saw another little girl about her age walking laps she decided she was brave enough to give that a try. We walked a lap then she would go up the stairs run out and see daddy, come back do another lap and repeat :)
We spent a couple of hours there and the Little Miss was having a grand old time but finally we had to declare it far enough past her nap time that we had to stop for lunch and get going.
After that we took a nice long drive and gave the Little Miss time to sleep. We drove down through Tatcher Park and Thompson's Lake. We stopped at the Education Center down between the two and grabbed some information so we can come back with the girls, turns out they have some pretty awesome things going on. On the way home we stopped at a Farmer Market and picked up some peaches to munch on and some corn, potatoes and garlic scapes to have with supper.
We ended up having Steak, corn on the cob and potatoes with garlic scape butter for dinner and then watching the newest Torchwood installment to wrap up the day. The day wasn't with out incident, toward the end the Little Miss was extremely cranky before bed time and the Littlest Miss can't seem to decide what bottle she wants to drink from and gets VERY cranky a well, BUT it couldn't cancel out the greatness, I think it just makes us realize how wonderful the day was even more :)
