National Outdoor Day

Yesterday, in celebration of National Outdoor Day, we went to Lamar Park where there were all sorts of activities set up for kids of all ages!

 

H was able to enjoy another Art to Go activity - making an art transfer.  One of our little neighbors, Gabriella was there coloring with him.  Miss Andi, the lady in the peach shirt has so much energy, H always gets a little quiet around her.  

We made our way over to Lake Patsy where they had a station set up for kids to make their own bamboo fishing poles.  All of the parents were a little nervous in this area with so many little ones with long poles and many with hooks!  There was a lot of ducking and dodging going on!  We made H's little and without a hook.  Daddy borrowed a huge one tried to catch a fish, but I think there were too many people fishing that all the fish were hiding.  C so wanted to fish too!!!!

 

C was plotting his tactics to get down to the water to fish...

 (He wouldn't keep his hat on.)

H's buddy, Harper (H says it "Hopper"), joined him to fish for a little while.  They were having a very deep conversation about hats and fishing.  

Getting a clover painted on his hand.  He is normally very against/scared of face painting, so I was a little surprised he would want to get anything painted.  Maybe next time he'll actually get his cheek painted. 

Last stop of the morning - a little respit in a hammock.  If I wasn't wearing C, I think I would have sat in it too!

A good day outdoors!
