Thursdays in the Park

My friend Katie had a brilliant idea earlier this summer to organize a mass play date in a different area park every Thursday morning. The kids and I have been trying to hit as many as possible. This week I was able to snap a couple of pictures to capture the fun. If you are a mom out there, looking for some fun on Thursday mornings, let me know and I'll tell you where we're meeting next!

Three Katie's! My friend Katie (left) with her son Xavier and Baby #2 (coming soon); our friendship goes back to when we first met as three year olds at church. My other dear friend Katie (center, and the Thursdays in the Park organizer) and her son Drew; we go back to those wonderful years known as junior high. Both of their friendships has meant so much to me through the years and it's fun to watch our kids become friends too.
