Saturday at the Parks!

In the hopes that non-stop activity would encourage this baby to make her way out, we woke up yesterday and tried to plan out a day of Big Fun. In a remarkable display of preschooler mobilization, we were out of the house by 9:15 to go explore Blue Jay County Park at Lake Harris north of Raleigh. We had the park to ourselves for a while and were able to enjoy a great big playground by ourselves for a while. We went on a grueling one-fifth mile hike past the edge of the lake and had a picnic lunch by a giant field, where we later played soccer and frisbee.

This wore us out pretty well, so we did take a few hour break before ...

Heading out to a baseball game! Although I (Geof) didn't write down how to get to the ballpark that we'd never been to before, we did eventually find our way there just in time for the anthem. We saw the Carolina Mudcats defeat the Birmingham Barons, but most of our crew was mostly interested in the snack offerings. We started with popcorn and sprite, followed by two portions of blue cotton candy. We didn't get home until 9:30, but actually had a very fun night at the ballgame! Kellen and Addie are both excited to go again sometime.
