Labor Day Weekend at Oaks Park

We've tried to take the girls to Oaks Park once before, but it was so crowded that we thought trying a week day instead of a weekend might be better.  Not true.  This time, we decided to kick off our Labor Day weekend activities with all of the fun rides and games but the crowds were even worse!  So, instead of trying to force wiggly kids into waiting in crazy lines, we walked around the park, ate ice cream and went down to the river.  It was totally delightful!

Clowning around.  Jocelyn is giving the chicken the fish eye.

K&J waiting for the train to come by again. They loved sitting on the barrels.

Best photo ever! Kate LOVED sharing our ice cream cone.

Jocie's face says it all. Yuck - you eat it.

Kate wading into the river.  She couldn't wait to get her shoes off and get her feet in the sand.

Jocelyn tossing rocks into the river.

Twin time, doing exactly what they love to do. Playing in the water and throwing rocks.
