Fun at the "Park" at Grandma and Grandpa's!

Tim's parents have more land than these kiddos could explore!  At least ages 2 1/2 and under...we'll see what 10 years from now holds. :)  But for now, they ran MILES around the yard and up slides, over swings...they literally had a park at their disposal for the whole weekend!  The coolest part is that the majority, if not all of this playground equipment was free!  I believe the twisty slide was even found in the middle of a desert!

 Megan and Finley enjoying the swings
 Tyler and his cousin Tristyn LOVED this big slide!  Tyler scared me to DEATH (almost... :P) when he was literally half way up the stairs to the top (well over my head) and fell through the side falling all the way to the ground.  SOOO thankful we only ended up with a few tears and some scratches on his face! And a near heart attack from me! I thought for sure he would have broken his arm or something! 
 
It was so great to finally (after over 2 years) meet Tristyn.  He has such a sweet spirit and reminds me a lot of our Tyler.  He was a joy to be around! ♥♥ this picture of him going down the slide!  Now that we have been home for awhile, Tyler still asks for his cousin Tristyn.  I hope these two have a great relationship as they grow up, even if its thousands of miles apart!
 
 
 Tyler and Tristyn having a blast on the swings!  Amanda is too I think. :)  Jon, well, he is enjoying his Dr. Pepper. :)
 These two kids are BLESSED!
 
I LOVE that last picture...the joy on my children's faces and the love their father has for them is just priceless.  If love could be captured in a picture, this picture is it!  ♥♥♥ Obviously a bias opinion for sure. ;)
18 month old Finley (who might I add is talking in full sentences and is potty trained---get with the program Megan!) making her way up the stairs to the top of the giant slide!  Obviously, her Daddy was not far behind!
 Finley looks so bored...but at least Nathan is having a good time! :)
 Tyler and Megan were both almost asleep while Daddy and Grandpa pushed them on the swings
 
Oh how Megan ADORES her Daddy and loves it when he helps her go down the slide!


 You don't get a more genuine smile out of Megan than this one
  As you can tell, the kids had a blast and we definitely had a blast watching them have a blast. :)  More fun pics to come!
