Sunday at the Park

My friend Karla told us about this park. Its so close to where we live and has been around for a while but we never ventured down there as a family. So this will have to be the first trips of many. Their is a cool path that takes you along the water, a playground that Eli can play on and lots of grass for whatever you wanted to do.
At first Eli didn't want to play on the playground, so we got out his little push car that some friends gave to us this past week and we pushed him around. Then once he saw a basket ball he b-lined it to the play ground. But that ball belonged to another little boy that feels the same way about balls that Eli does so that was just a big disappointment. We almost left the park but then realized that Eli had his own ball in the car. After a long tantrum and not allowing us to put him in the car seat, I felt as though the small little boy needed some closure in his world. So we gave him his ball and set him on his way. To the playground he went, with his ball in hand. That led to a quit enjoyable time on the playground and lots of fun pictures.

Eli is looking up at the moon...Well Eli says that it's a ball.
I think he thinks its like the Head Ball...the Leader and Creator of all Balls. Just the look in his eyes in this picture says it all. Such a pleased look..like he found what he was always looking for these past 18 Months.

The Ball!
