One day after dropping Lily off at school, Ava and Will wanted to go somewhere. I was sick of the same old parks and I definitely didn't want to take them to a shop when I had nothing to shop for. So lucky I remembered that our town has a little Arboretum that we have never tried out. It was a fantastic little gem in the heart of the town. Ava and Will loved it.
So many different trails to explore.
There was this super cute little pond in the middle.
More exploring.
Not sure why, but I thought this dead tree looked cool.
Back for more water fun.
There was this big rock that Will was sure there was a way to climb. However, he is still too small to find a way.
The bike racks were a big hit.
Will kept wanting pictures by every sign since I took one of them at the first sign.
The kids loved it so much, we have been back twice. Here is one morning with just Will.
We came in the back side this time and there were just tons and tons of galahs, those pink birds on the branch if you can see them.
This is visit number three. Ava had been dying to show Lily the adventuring park. Lily insisted on bringing that baby doll in the stroller. Then Will insisted he be the one to push it around. Haha.
He wouldn't let anyone else touch it. Apparently, he decided it was the mans job.
Later on, Will decided to see what would happen if he let the stroller go on a slop going straight into the water. Yep, it went right in and started sinking. Lucky for the baby doll, Ava was holding it at the moment. So I had to step in the nasty water and rescue the sinking stroller.
Once again, Will posing at every sign.
Lily's balancing act.
Of course, Will has to try too.
We are glad to have discovered such a nice little walking trail right in the middle of town. I am going to remember it in the winter months. It will be a very nice place to go when there are less flies!
