The Return of the Parks

After a pretty mild winter, we are actually having what I think is spring! We are loving all the sunshine and spend a lot of time outdoors (when I'm not packing). We feel so lucky to live in walking distance from an awesome park, and get down there almost every single day. We're really going to miss being so close to such a fantastic place. But I'm sure we'll find other places we love in Wasilla. 

After playing on the playground for a while, we always walk on the nice trails for a bit and end up throwing rocks and sticks in the creek under the bridge. They like to find trees that have been chewed down by beavers, look for moose, (for a couple days there was one way too close to the trail for my liking, but she didn't seem to mind all the people) and find other treasures of the forest :). Life is pretty good when you are a kid playing outside.
