The Visit

Last weekend (not the one just past - the one before that!) we had a nice visit..........

......... with our little boys!  They came up for a short visit, but I did get pictures of them having some fun at the playground.

Munchie - who is learning to read very quickly! - stopped to read the sign at the entrance to the playground area.  Then..........

.......... under Poppa's watchful eye, both boys started up this scare-ey looking piece of equipment!

And it wasn't long before Munchie had scaled its heights and was at the very top!  Little Curtie.....

............. got almost to the top, but faced with the lateral movement to the centre decided (sensibly I thought) to climb back down at that point.  I caught Daddy...........

.............. playing too!  Munchie did a tour of the equipment, he moved to .........

........... this climbing apparatus and mastered it in moments, which got him to....

............ these monkey bars.  When his arms got tired, he moved on again.....

......... and climbed UP the slide..... while nearby....

............ Curtie came DOWN the slide - headfirst!  When I turned around again........

.............. Daddy had moved to another piece of exercise equipment, and............

.............. Munchie was sitting in the little truck for a bit of a rest........... then..........

.......... he tried the bumble bee to see if he was too big for it yet - nope - he still fits.  Next....

......... he tried the "big kid" monkey bars, but they were a little bit hard for him - they're further apart!  So he gave up on them and....

.......... tested this noisy, clanging keyboard to make sure it still worked.  It did.  He.....

............ twirled on the whirligig, then jumped off and....

...........thought he should work on his muscles to get them toned up.......

............ he needed a little assistance with this one - it was tough!  He found Curtie and they both.......

............... tested this machine while Mommy took some pictures.  I think he would have played all day but.........

........... the rest of his family was getting hungry, so we headed off for supper.  I did manage to........

....... finish some Soccer Sox for Curtie while.......

............ Munchie was getting re-acquainted with Taffy and Squeegie.
