Saturday, August 10: Kaity attended the birthday party of her close friend, Kenzie, Saturday afternoon. I picked her up from the party, but visited with folk for a little while before leaving. By the time we actually were on our way, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon. What should we do with the rest of our day?
Kaity is an outdoor girl. I love these summer months when we can be OUTSIDE. Kaity is in her element and full of JOY when she can run and play freely.I decided to drive us up to Rockford to see if we could find any playgrounds we hadn't visited yet this season. Yes!
I let Kaity "loose" and she did her usual exuberant antics on this little playground ...
However, I knew there were other adventures waiting for us ... we just had to follow a little pathway ... to the bridge!
This is a super pretty little place, isn't it?
I LOVE bridges!
Kaity ran like crazy from place to place ...
But then we happened upon a tiny place where you could actually walk down to the Rogue River and step IN ...
Sometimes you just have to get IN to enjoy life, don't you?
I loved watching Kaity's joy. She is such a gift to my heart.
She is a fearless little child ... always testing the boundaries ...
She joyfully tossed rocks into the water for quite a little while, requesting to go further and further in--which I did not allow!
So, Kaity was obedient to her grandma's directions, and stayed by the shore to explore ...
We found another little playground just a short distance from the river. Kaity tried out every little piece of equipment before we walked back ...
We did spend a little time over at my house as well. I fed Kaity a nice beefy hotdog (no pig hotdogs are allowed at my house!), and then Kaity ran around and played.
We each built a marble run and then we joined the two together. Kaity is a very creative and smart builder!
Kaity figured out HOW to make my remote control car work again! Thank you, Kaity!
I love being your grandma, Kaity!
