Washington Park

Saturday started out with our May-October weekly ritual of the farmers market. I bought about $40 worth of fruit! Tyler wanted a little something of everything. All the blueberries that we bought are almost gone, those two kids can eat some blueberries! The weather was pretty chilly in the morning, so Tyler didn't go running in the water fountain like he normal does.

After nap time we went to Washington Park. It is a huge park about 8 miles from our house. The Oregon Zoo is at Washington Park and we have been to the zoo many times, but we have never been to the rest of the park, which is about 400 acres all in all. One of Ryan's friends told us about a huge playstructure at Washington park, so we decided to head out there on Saturday since the weather was just about perfect. (I thought it got a bit chilly, but Ryan said it was perfect!). I tried to get a picture of Tyler, but he was just too fast, he didn't stop running the entire time we were there. Liam was practically running around the park also!

After the kids ran around like maniacs for about 1 1/2 hours we went to get some dinner. We stopped at 3 restaurants and all had a HUGE wait!! After an hour of driving and finding parking, we almost went home to eat cereal, but then we remembered our old trusty standby...the buffet! As always Tyler sat with his butt firmly in his seat and ate all sorts of stuff. Liam did really good too, he ate just about everything I put in front of him...You gotta love the buffett when you have kids under the age of 6!!!!
