Nonnie and Natalia were back in town for a fantastic long weekend visit. As always Natalia kept us hopping and a definite highlight was the new Spray Park at Lee District Park. We went twice in one weekend! It was Nicholas' first time in a bathing suit and first time splashing around in water that wasn't in a bathtub. He LOVED it! Especially the bubblers that come up from the ground - he kept trying to "catch" the water. So cute! Plus who doesn't love a baby in a sun hat?

| "Let go Mom! I want to ride this like the log flume!" |
 |
| "Ok, really I just want to take a big gulp" |
We also hit the regular playground at Lee District Park - which was wonderfully covered by a giant shade canopy. Nicholas tried to raid the snack bag...to no avail. See those angry eyebrows?
 |
| "Hmm...what do we have here..." |
 |
| "Wow - peanut butter crackers, string cheese & fruit snacks - oh my!" |
 |
| "Darn it - those chicks ate all the snacks and left me drooling - boo!" |
And of course we had to go back to Burke Lake Park for a repeat ride on the carousel and train - and this time Daddy got to join while Mommy took her golf lesson.
Finally we spent some quality time at home just hanging out and playing the piano!
Nicholas and Natalia are natural musicians!
